Assuming the folks over at Droid Life aren't pulling a fast one, then the Motorola Droid 2 has been fully undressed ahead of its official unveiling. Borrowing its looks from the first Droid, the second-gen handset is similar in style, though it's reportedly thinner and it nixes the oft-neglected directional pad in favor of larger keys, which are easier to touch than the original's flat design.

Specifications include a 3.7-inch display, a 750MHz OMAP processor, Wi-Fi tethering, 8GB internal storage and an 8GB SD card preinstalled, a 5-megapixel camera, a new version of Motoblur, and the phone currently runs Android 2.1. Notably absent is a front-mounted camera, but the Droid Xtreme has that feature along with an 8-megapixel HD rear camera and HDMI-out.


Droid Life reports that both the Droid 2 and Droid Xtreme are due in the third quarter of this year and may even launch on the same day.
