Motorola Defy to be launched on October 21 in Europe?
Motorola Defy, the company’s second rugged Android smartphone, was officially unveiled in early September. At that time, it was only mentioned that the handset would be available in the fourth quarter of the year, so no exact launch date was given.
Well, the launch date (in France, at least) might be October 21.
MobiFrance discovered that Motorola will hold a press event on that day for launching a “life proof smartphone.” The water drops on the invitation (see below) are most likely an indication that the smartphone is water proof – just like the Defy is.
Of course, Moto may actually unveil a completely new rugged smartphone, although I doubt it. I guess we’ll find out what exactly is going on only after the October 21 event kicks off.
It’s worth mentioning that the Defy is already featured on Motorola France’s website.
Apart from being released in Europe, the Motorola Defy will also be available in the US, where T-Mobile will offer it in time for the holiday season.

And before somebody asks why it's in german, that's because it's the most important market for the defy until it hits the US later this year, resulting in earlier hands-on tests etc.

Anonymous, 05 Oct 2010OMAP 3610 does not have PowerVR core.The quadrant benchmark proofs you wrong. Motorola added a PowerVr to the OMAP 3610 on their own it seems...
GPU (OpenGL)
Vendor: Imagination Techonogies
Renderer: PowerVR SGX 530
Version: OpenGL ES-CM 1.1
Max texture units: 4
Max texture size: 2048
Max lights: 8
VBO: supported
Frame buffers: unsupported
Cube maps: supported
Texture combiners: supported
Crossbar combiner: supported
Infos from quadrant. 1026 points achieved btw on 2.1 which would be absolutely impossible without a dedicated GPU anyway.

Hi, i'm the guy who explained how the missing GPU would destroy the defy in benchmarks.
New tests with quadrant and neocore have shown, the Defy seems to have a GPU...a new PowerVR at that. The power of the Defy seems to be almost the same as the Nexus One with Froyo...AND AT ANDROID 2.1 !!!!! That means, if froyo reaches the defy it will outperform everthing but the newer high-end phones. Now imagine that piece of awesome overclocked !
But why isn't Motorola telling people about the GPU ???
