Having offered you an initial heads up concerning the Motorola MOTOROI back last week (see: Motorola MOTOROI Android Phone Official in Korea) and having followed up with news that the Motorola MOTOROI is set to hit the US this Spring (see: Motorola MOTOROI Android Phone Coming to the USA This Spring) speculation based on a leak from Motorola themselves would hint that the Motorola MOTOROI is to see its US release courtesy of T-Mobile.

The speculation that the Motorola MOTOROI will hit the US via T-Mobile hinges on a leak from Motorola that stated that a new version of the Motorola Droid sans slider keyboard is headed for the US carrier and, in this respect, its not a massive assumption that said device is in fact the Motorola MOTOROI (the device has the same display, comes sans slider keyboard and runs Android OS 2.0)
Adding to the speculation – as nothing is yet to be officially confirmed either by Motorola or T-Mobile at this juncture – is the fact that the FFC have approved a new handset known (like the Droid) by the codename ‘Sholes’ which, according to the FCC documentation, offers full support of T-Mobile’s 3G network.
Of course, it could transpire that all the above relates, not to the Motorola MOTOROI , but to another as yet unknown tablet style phone but, personally, we wouldn’t bet against this T-Mobile device transpiring to be the MOTOROI in line with the current speculation.
The moment we get any further information that confirms or refutes the above we’ll naturally offer it up asap.

Now that’s the way to present a story (Motoroi/TMobile)… upfront disclosure that it’s NOT confirmed, but is totally possible. Seems the majority of the cellphone sites, including the big names, are resorting to the news raggish, sensationalism, and hype approach to reporting.
Good to see your committment to factual reporting and quality, Mr.Andrew!

…you mean informed speculation, not like, as you stated, that’s something most mass media stays clear of.
If you read the above you’ll note that the leak does NOT confirm this particular handset BUT it IS fair to speculate that it may well transpire that it is indeed referring to it.
A difficult concept for you to get a grasp, apparently, but one that, as you say, a great deal of other sites have managed to get their heads around.
