NVIDIA's CEO confirms that Motorola is a big customer

We recently reported to you about a holiday release that Motorola is planning along with Google and Verizon, that will result in the first handset to use the Gingerbread build of Android. The device, which we previously referred to as the DROID T2, apparently has a somewhat more refined name of the Motorola Venus and will also be the first handset to be equipped with the NVIDIA Tegra 2 Dual-Core processor. Verizon customers will be happy to hear that the Venus will have a front-facing camera and 1080 video encode/decode. Other specifications will be similar to what is on the DROID X.

One way to confirm this is to see what NVIDIA has to say and the firm's CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang, said that Motorola is, “very important to us and will represent long term (one) of our biggest customers". While not quite as convincing as having Motorola introduce the phone to the media, Motorola fans have to like the sound of Huang's comments as it does give some veracity to the info about the Venus.

As far as tablets are concerned, new speculation has surfaced that Motorola is working on bringing a few Tegra flavored tablets to market, including a pair named Everest and Olympus. NVIDIA has a new SugarDaddy and his name is Sanjay Jha.
