Martin Marty Cooper (born December 26, 1928 in Chicago, Illinois, USA) is considered the inventor of the first handheld cellular phone. Right now, he is using Droid mostly; also mentioned iPhone; and admitted trying every cell phone out.

Cspan: What kind of cell phone do you have?

Martin Cooper: “It depends when you ask me. I, always have the latest cell phone, and I try every cell phone out, only because people like you keep asking me. Right now I’m using Droid, because I want to get some experience with the Android operating system, and I so far, have some pretty favorable results. I’ve had an iPhone, which I gave to my grandson, which he used for three months and then I had to upgrade to a  better version. And I’ve tried many other phones. For my day to day conversations I actually use the Jitterbug. So I carry two phones, one very simple phone that I can flip open that has a very simple phone book and nothing else. But when I want to twitter - tweet, then, I use my Droid.”

LAST NIGHT I HAD A CHANCE playing with two wonderful Android handsets: Motorola Milestone (aka DROID) and Motorola DEXT (aka CLIQ), thanks to a friend from Motorola. Milestone is good for business people, while DEXT is a must have device for social networking fans. Both offer touchscreen capability as well as physical keypads. Good thing is that both devices will hit the Asian market soon. Milestone, which has multitouch capability and a Qwerty slider,  runs on Google's open-source Android OS 2.0. It packs a large 3.7-inch touchscreen, 5MP camera, microSDHC slot, Wi-Fi and GPS. Milestone also supports Flash-based webpages. It sports a dual-band 3G support for Europe and Asia. And it has smarter messaging, too. DEXT, the company's first foray into Android territory, is a QWERTY side slider. It runs the MOTOBLUR (a feature to track tweets, status updates and emails and merge them with your Google account to fill up the phone's address book), and has a 3.1-inch HVGA screen (capacitive touchscreen), 5MP autofocus camera, 3G and Wi-Fi. Its fully customisable homescreen is awesome. Full specs from Motorola: Milestone | DEXT Full specs from Phone Arena: Milestone: | DEXT

Okay, so last night I had a chance to play with two wonderful Motorola's Android handset: Motorola Milestone (aka DROID) and Motorola DEXT (aka Cliq).

The Milestone, which has multitouch capability and a Qwerty slider, runs on Google's open-source Android OS 2.0 and packs a large 3.7-inch touchscreen, 5MP camera, microSDHC slot, Wi-Fi and GPS.
