Motorola launching 20-30 Android phones in 2010

Some interesting tidbits came out of Motorola's DEXT launch in Singapore today -- CNET Asia had a chance to sit down with Moto's Asia Pacific VP Spiro Nikolakopoulos, who said that the company would launch between 20 to 30 Android phones globally in 2010. Spiro also said that not every phone would make it to every market, so we're guessing the true number will be more like 10 if you count regional variants like the CLIQ and the DEXT as one model. Just by our count, Moto's already pretty close: off the tops of our heads we've heard of the Shadow , the Devour , the Backflip , the Ruth , and several others destined for China -- rather impressive for a company that was on the brink of collapse just a short while ago. No wonder it's reconsidering that spinoff , eh? [Thanks, Hiro] Motorola launching 20-30 Android phones in 2010 originally appeared on Engadget on Wed, 20 Jan 2010 13:11:00 EST.

The Monochrome Grey Desktop [Featured Desktop]

Reader zalary's Windows desktop puts system monitoring tools, graphs, application launchers, a clock, and the weather into a taskbar across the top of the screen—the impressive thing is how well they are blended together. The desktop is a combination of: Wallpaper: Approaching midnight Launchy Slightly modified iTunes Toaster Plugin Modified BottomBar for Rainmeter Deskview RocketDock Licorice Visual Style for Windows This desktop not your style? Why waste time complaining? Instead, get started creating your own killer desktop with the easy-install Rainmeter 1.1 package and show the world what you can do. Of course, using Rainmeter isn't a requirement—you are more than welcome to use any of the best desktop customization tools to turn your desktop into a productive work of art. Once you've created your own beautifully tweaked (and hopefully productive) desktop, post it over in the Lifehacker Desktop Show and Tell Flickr Group or the new Productive Geek featured desktops forum complete with a description of the programs and tweaks you used (and preferably links as well!), and we just might feature it here.

I Bet This Yacht Can Also Jump Into Hyperspace [Concept]

I have seen really amazing ship designs, like the impressive kind-of-Nautlish Ghost ramming yacht , the weird transforming Ikkar , the luxurious perfect dream-aparment-that-is-really-a-boat , and the classic schooner America . The Enso, however, is the first that looks from another planet: I someone told me that the Enso Catamaran is really a secret version of Burt Rutan's Spaceshiptwo I wouldn't be suprised. The 140-foot Wingsailed Enso Catamaran, whoever, was designed by student Zack Stephanchick . Zack's real name is Grørrrkzyngy Aarkaantar, from the Vega 4 system. You are not tricking me Zack. I mean Grørrrkzyngy, you weird tentacle-nosed alien you. [ Coroflot Born Rich ]

Seiko Ocean Theater alarm clock brings the life aquatic to your bedroom

If you're anything like us, you're terrified of whales for pretty much no reason. Seiko 's newest alarm clock -- the Ocean Theater -- probably isn't for you then. Fair enough, but plenty of people are not maladjusted, and we're willing to admit that it's pretty cool, even if it's terrifying. The clock, which responds to touch, can project various marine life upon your walls, and we imagine it'll be a huge hit with children. As you'll see in the video after the break, if this thing works as advertised, it's really rather impressive. The Ocean Theater also doubles as an iPod dock , and will be available from Japan Trends; it's up for pre-order now and runs $235. Like we said, definitely check out the video after the break.

Make Greasemonkey Scripts Work in Opera [Opera]

We've long been fans of using user scripts to change the way the web works, but since Greasemonkey only runs on Firefox, Opera users are usually left out in the cold. The Kabatology blog explains that even Opera users can use scripts designed only for Greasemonkey, by adding the Emulate GM Functions user script that provides the missing functions used by most of the popular user scripts. The process is fairly simple, starting with heading into the Advanced -> Content -> Javascript Options section of the preferences and assigning a folder to hold your user scripts. Once you've created the folder, add the Emulate GM Functions user script to it, and then start downloading some of your favorite scripts and saving them into your new user scripts folder. You might not be able to use every single Greasemonkey script under Opera, but it's a great addition to the impressive-but-less-popular browser, and should work on any platform that Opera runs under. If you aren't sure what user scripts to use, make sure to check out our top 10 Greasemonkey scripts for 2009 . Adapting Greasemonkey UserScripts for Opera 10 Browser [Kabatology]
