Droid 2 Pro and Droid Global Resurface!

The Droid 2 Global handset has resurfaced in Verizon’s carrier’s inventory. The device was noticed alongside the Droid Pro, which caused confusion when the Pro turned out to also be a global handset.

The Droid 2 Global is expected to be a global version of the Droid 2 slider, with quad-band GSM support and Android 2.2. Leaked specs point to a 1.2GHz CPU, a 5-megapixel camera with auto focus and dual LED flash, and 8GB of integrated storage.

Like the Droid Pro, the Droid 2 Global is said to be aimed at business customers.

A fresh new Verizon Wireless rebate sheet emerged Friday and brought with it some confusion. On the sheet, the upcoming Motorola DROID 2 Global had two associated SKUs.

Since two separate versions of the unreleased DROID Pro were recently discovered — one with a camera and one without — it was assumed that these SKUs represented a standard DROID 2 Global and a second version sans-camera.

The screen shot seen above, delivered from an anonymous source, shows two versions of the Motorola DROID 2 Global within the Costco inventory system. The difference between them, as it turns out, is the color.

Fans of white phones will be happy to learn that the DROID 2 Global will be released in both black and white when it finally does launch next month. Both versions will be 9.99 on contract. We still have no firm release date for these 1.2GHz beasts.
