In a recent interview with CNET Asia, Motorola’s General Manager for the region has stated that all of the 20-30 smartphones to be released in 2010 will run Android:

“There will be between 20 and 30 smartphones globally and, at this moment, all of them will run Android. Naturally, not all will be available everywhere as it depends on the company’s partnership with the various telco operators in each country. For non-smartphone models, they will run either Brew or the Motorola’s own operating system.”

This further puts a damper on Microsoft, of which Motorola had skipped the Windows Mobile 6.5 OS. Now, it looks like Windows Mobile 7 is a no show for Motorola despite earlier rumors that the company is waiting for 7 for new handsets. There were also prior rumors that the Droid may have been made for Windows Mobile 7, but Motorola switched to Android because 7 was supposedly delay.
