FCC filings are usually a sure sign of a release date in a month or less. Now that the over- delayed Droid Bionic documents have been filed with the FCC , there is hope that it will be released soon, maybe on the leaked roadmap release date (September 8) and some features have been confirmed.
The most useful part is the 'users manual" first drafts and warranty. The touchscreen has a light sensor. Your touchscreen might stay dark if the sensor just above it is covered. This feature will probably help with battery drain. The Droid Bionic will feature mobile hotspots and tethering.
The diagram shows a 4.3" touchscreen it also looks like it has the new music/media player found in the Editors' Choice Motorola Photon 4G. As previously leaked the Droid Bionic has HDMI mirroring and now features Netflix and induction charging.
The Droid Bionic is a global phone in that it has SIM card that can be activated for world travel. It is not clear it like the Motorola Photon that we reviewed today that can also connect to global 3G/4G data networks.
