Droid Does Dual-Core – Verizon Customers Can Now Enjoy the Tegra Super Phone Experience

Posted: 18 May 2011 11:00 AM PDT

Today Motorola and Verizon Wireless introduced the Tegra-powered Droid X2 super phone, the next generation of the popular Droid X Android phones.

We're excited about this newest super phone for several reasons, not least of which is that Verizon customers  can get  the best web experience, extreme multitasking and console-quality gaming in a super phone.

Another reason is that the Droid X2 runs on Verizon's large 3G network – giving Verizon customers the chance to check out the brand-new experiences that Tegra brings to mobile devices, such as Tegra Zone.

The very popular original Droid X now gets more punch and power with Tegra 2. Tegra's dual-core CPU, hardware-accelerated Flash Player capabilities and GeForce GPU combine to turbocharge the Droid X2, with 2X faster system performance over single-core smartphones, up to 2X faster web browsing, and access to Tegra-optimized games via the Tegra Zone app on Android Market.

Droid X2:

  • Powered by NVIDIA Tegra 2
  • Runs Android 2.2, to be updated to Android 2.3
  • Large 4.3" scratch-resistant and anti-reflective qHD screen
  • Mirror Mode via HDMI to view and share photos, videos and downloaded movies on your HDTV
  • 8MP camera with continuous auto-focus and HD video capture
  • Access to thousands of Android Market apps

The DROID X2 will be available online at www.verizonwireless.com on May 19 and in Verizon Wireless Communication Stores on May 26.

Project Inspire Spring Update: NVIDIA Helps San Jose Bloom

Posted: 18 May 2011 09:00 AM PDT

Five months after 1,000 NVIDIA volunteers converged on History Park in San Jose, Calif., vegetables are growing, flowers are blooming and families are literally enjoying the fruits of their labor. We decided to return this spring to see the progress families have made since our 2010 Project Inspire work day last December.

As this video shows, the community has adopted the gardens and greenhouse, and they recently started the summer planting, which will yield fresh vegetables for hundreds of low income folks in San Jose.   

NVIDIA cares about the health of its community, and our goal with last year's Project Inspire was to improve the health of families by helping them grow fresh produce.

If you have an idea for a future Project Inspire, please email us at communityrelations@nvidia.com.
