On Verizon’s big Android day where they’ve launched 2 Android powered devices, a 3rd one comes out of the shadows. The Saygus V1 as discovered by Joel at Gear Diary. It looks very similar, including the weirdly placed dpad, to the Motorola Droid. Joel doesn’t know if this one will come to Verizon like the Motorola made “Droid” and the HTC “Droid Eris”.  It is a CDMA phone so the assumption is going to that it’s a 3rd “Droid” for Verizon.

The specs are as follows:

  • Processor: Marvell PXA 310, 624MHz
  • Operating System: Android OS
  • Flash Memory: 512 MB

    Bluetooth v2.0+EDR
    Stereo Bluetooth (A2DP)

    Music playback time up to 8 hours
    Video-talk time up to 4 hours
  • Expansion Slot: MicroSD™ memory card supports current 16GB and 32GB when available
  • Special Features: Video Telephony, GPS / A-GPS E911, 3D Accelerometer (G-sensor), Digital Compass, USB 2.0 OTG / USB Mass Storage / USB Charging, FM Radio

That’s a lot of specs!
