Well this makes things interesting. I'm guessing the updates will come along nicely now It's an exciting time to own a Motorola phone.

Although enjoying my Photon over Evo 4G, was considering returning when Galaxy 2 was to be released. This is a game changer for me; gonna stick with Moto for sure now, can only imagine what Google will do with having there own hardware to play with!

Hopefully the next nexus will be a MOTO! I'm probably gong to get my photon today to replace this signal deficient Samsung. A nexus phone with a Motorola radio would be hard to beat.

There are a bunch of threads on this development, but I expet most of the action to be in the "Android News" thread(s).

A game changer for sure. Was playing with the Photon for a month and then deciding what to do with the SGSII coming out. I was already "all in" with google and Android and now I'm thinking I'm sticking with the Photon and going "all in" with Moto as well. It really is a solid phone and meets all my needs so far.

My moto stock just doubled. Thanks Google!

Paying $40 a share cash over 12 billion!! wow. ....it's all about the patents. ;-)

Unfortunately it will take some time for the deal to go through so it may take time before Google gives the Photon any attention.

Wow Incredible news. I returned to Moto with the photon as the OG droid's build quality I loved. The evo 4 g was great but I still yearned for moto as I Have used motos as far back as startac's. So to see Google acquire them is great. I expect big things from them.

I hope now we can expect ICS update on Atrix and Photon as soon as its out and official.
