Motorola Droid Pro Release Date November 18th?

Tweet

The Motorola Droid Pro looks to be the first Android phone that will be taking business seriously. It’s a big step for the mobile platform, and some people are excited over the new phone. If you’re one of them, alleged internal documents acquired by AndroidCentral show Verizon Wireless is planning to begin offering pre-sales of the device starting November 9th, with general sales starting on November 18th.

And those who pre-order the Droid Pro will receive their device early, if these documents are to be trusted. Pre-order shipments will start November 10-11th, clearly before the regular release date. The documents show that Verizon is classifying the phone as an “iconic device”, one that they believe will have high consumer demand, even before the phone launches (IE: Droid X, Droid Incredible, etc. etc.)

Still no word on pricing. You’ve got to imagine the phone will be in the $200 price range with a two-year contract, although there had been some indication that it could be more (!).

Remember that the Motorola Droid Pro is an Android 2.2 device that is packing a ‘BlackBerry-style’ keyboard with a 3.1-inch screen and Android 2.2. It’s got things like Exchange support, support for extra security and encryption and will even come in a cameraless variety, for those who work in high-security workplaces.
