Google is unveiling the mythical Motorola X Phone later this year, and the device is going to a "real breakthrough, a game changer that will put pressure on Samsung and Apple," an exec for top Australian wireless carrier Telstra told employees, according to a Web site. The Web site, SmartHouse, also claims that according to its sources, the first device jointly developed by Motorola and Google may include software that has never been seen before in a smartphone. Google is expected to unveil the Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie operating system -- and possibly the Motorola X Phone -- at its I/O event in May.
