Motorola Zeppelin photographed, climbs stairway to Android

Gizmodo Brasil was able to score some playing time with a prototype model of the Motorola Zeppelin. The handset is rockin' with Android 1.5 (so it likes the oldies, who doesn't?) and MotoBlur is on board to push your social network messages to your home page. As we previously reported, the specs for this device are more Cliq than DROID and we wouldn't be surprised if the Zep was packing up for a trip to Barcelona later this month for the MWC. At the time of the last report, it looked like Android 2.0 or 2.1 would be powering the handset, but that doesn't seem to be the case at all. While no carrier has been announced, Gizmodo Brasil says to expect a March launch. T-Mobile, perhaps?
