Motorola approved for Symbian phone

Excerpt from CNET article:
Despite being one of the companies that helped establish Symbian as a private company in 1998, Motorola has dragged its feet in developing phones using the Symbian operating system--but that may be changing.

Motorola received a grant Wednesday from the Federal Communications Commission to sell what is referred to in filings as the A920 multimedia communicator. The device comes with gaming features, a built-in camera, cell phone, music player, Web browser, video player, picture viewer, e-mail and an organizer. The A920 has a touch screen and uses handwriting recognition software for inputting data. With the camera and phone capabilities the device can support video conferencing.

Looks kinda bad me me. Looks like its really trying to be a P800. One big difference is the addition of the 4-way nav button.

Which Symbian version does it have? The keypad reminds me of Nokia Series 60 (Symbian 6.1)
