Motorola's new Linux-based A810 smartphone breezed through the FCC recently, and it looks really nice. This full-touchscreen handset features a minimum of hardware buttons, instead relying on the touchscreen for navigation - a stylus is included.

The Motorola A810 sports a 2 megapixel camera, but no flash, unfortunately. There is a microSD card slot beneath the battery for expanded memory, and a standard 3.5mm audio jack will make music listening convenient. An FM radio is also on board, as well as Bluetooth support.

Thanks to the Linux-based operating system, the Motorola A810 features an on-screen QWERTY keyboard, numeric keypad, and handwriting recognition, for convenient text input. Tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz) allows for global connectivity, though the lack of GSM 850MHz likely means the A810 is not headed for the U.S. market.
