Samsung Galaxy S dances through the FCC’s ring of tests

Looks like the Samsung Galaxy S didn’t have such a bad time at the FCC, and passed their unnumbered amount of tests. Above is a nice little outline complete with the FCC’s label. Since the FCC is American, that means only one thing: it’s gotta be coming Stateside. Sporting AT&T-friendly bands, 850MHz and 1900MHz, that would mean that in the coming months you could expect it to baffle the Motorola BACKFLIP, AT&T’s first (questionable) Android handset. Now if only AT&T made this real…

The FCC does a teardown for the iPad

Ever wanted to know what was inside of the over-hyped iPad? You know, the guts and brains of this “magical” and “revolutionary” device? Well look no further than the experts at the FCC, who made a pretty cool looking teardown of it, although none of the pics are iFixit worthy, they’re impressive either way. Full photo gallery at Engadget. It’s strange how this wasn’t on the official Federal Communications Comissions site, if you ask me.

Nexus One passes the FCC again, now in CDMA form

Not too long ago the Nexus One passed through the FCC, a model that seemed it was destined for AT&T. Today though, a new version has jumped the Great Wall of the Federal Communications Commission: A dual-band CDMA variant, definitely the one headed for Verizon Wireless. Anyway, the model number and label shape are the same, so that’s the only confirmation we’ll need.

LEAKED: New Motorola handsets with T-Mobile and AT&T support spotted at the FCC

If eight Android phones are not enough for Motorola’s execs, then maybe 11 are good enough? Three unknown devices passed through the FCC last week with FCC IDs IHDP56KZ1 and IHDP56KZ2. The KZ1 model comes with quad band GSM and 3G support for T-Mobile, along with Bluetooth 2.1. The second model, the KZ2, comes with quad band GSM and 3G support for AT&T. Both phones include 802.11b/g Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1, and seem to be the same smartphone, likely running Android, but on different networks. As for the third, it support  CDMA EVDO and Bluetooth via IHDT56LC1, with the model number WX404. Otherwise there’s not much to go by, and these 3 handsets are probably a few of 20 that Motorola plans to release this year, if you remember (or more precisely, if you read LaptopMemo). Either way, here are the FCC IDs, which a couple of have been pulled down, unusually enough. Now onto more searching….

Project Pink “Turtle” phone seen at the FCC

Of the two Project Pink phones that were humorously leaked in December, the Pure and Turtle, a turtle-shaped phone with a round keyboard and shell seems to be the first handset seen and approved by the FCC. Since it is a Microsoft/Danger-designed phone and the speculated replacement for the Sidekick, then you would think it would be produced by Sharp, which is the current manufacturer of the aging Sidekick. In a search of the FCC’s Authorized Equipment database, Sharp is revealed to have been authorized for a CDMA-based handset, which an FCC label matches the renderings leaked last year. With all of these details uncovered, and info from large media like WSJ and CNET, you can be sure that these “teen smartphones” will be used soon enough.

Thanks FCC: Motorola Sholes aka MOTOROI headed for T-Mobile

Once again, the FCC does a great job at unintentionally leaking out products, and they’ve done the job very well with the Sholes Tablet, aka the Motorola MOTOROI. The FCC filing labels the handset with ID IHDP56KC6, and is certified for quadband EDGE plus T-Mobile’s 1700 / 2100MHz HSPA with a peak of 10.2Mbps down and 5.6Mbps up, Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS, and magnetic compass. Somehow Moto made sure that certain parts of the document are censored, but left the word “SHOLES”, and that’s all we need to know, right? Now just to confirm that this isn’t a filing for the original Sholes, aka the Motorola Droid; there is only one figure in this filing, and the Droid had two: “slider up” and “slider down”. The MOTOROI doesn’t have a QWERTY keyboard. So it’s the Sholes Tablet, aka the MOTOROI, bound for T-Mobile sometime this or next quarter.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be looking for more info than just this.

Nexus One car dock being tested at the FCC, Nexus One trade name is “Google Phone”

This is the most “almost official” use of a name we’ve heard yet for the Nexus One. While yesterday we saw a wireframe of the Nexus One Bluetooth dock, today we’re finding that the car dock is being put through its paces at the FCC, and is listed with the trade name of “Google Phone”. What makes this find even more plausible is that the form was made by HTC employees, and the “Google Phone” is the called the “Nexus One” in other parts of the document. And since this is the goverment, the employees who filled out the form must be referring to the product we want released — the Nexus One, with the trade name “Google Phone”. Click the “Read More” link for a wireframe of the car dock. [Engadget via FCC]

Nexus One dock appears from the FCC

Maybe the Nexus One will go as the most-leaked smartphone of all time. I don’t know if it will be, or if it is, but I’ll stop right there. Because we’ve got another Nexus One leak for you, courtesy of the leaking-happy FCC. The Nexus One dock includes Bluetooth, but the N1 itself already has Bluetooth 2.1+ EDR, so there probably is another motive here. The model number is CR B410, and besides the figure above, and knowledge of it having Bluetooth 2.1, we’re pretty much in the dark.
