Latest on the Motorola DROID 3: No LTE aboard

Back last week, we reported on specs for the Motorola DROID 3 that were found on benchmarking website Nenamark. You might recall that the third-generation model of the phone that started Androidmania is expected to have a PowerVR SGX540 GPU and a TI dual-core OMAP4 1GHz CPU under the hood. The screen is said to be 4 inches of qHD pleasure with both rear and front facing cameras expected, along with a 5 row physical keyboard.

A "reliable" source at TechnoBuffalo has filled in some of the missing pieces. The Motorola DROID 3 will come to market, according to the tipster, with an 8MP camera in back and a 1.3MP camera in front. And while the informant wasn't as sure as Nenamark about whether the handset would sport the TI OMAP4430 or the NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, he was sure about one thing that will make DROID fans upset-like its larger stablemate-the Motorola DROID X2-the DROID 3 will be launched sans 4G. Speaking of the launch, the release is expected sometime next month.
