The Motorola Charm incorporates a newer version of Motorola's Motoblur UI, which mirrors the typical Android interface meant for social networking and personal communication. The new Motoblur, reportedly allows the users to change the size of their home screen "widgets", with seven different home screens to cycle through and the Facebook and Twitter widgets are expected to get necessary upgrade functionality. The Charm is also expected to release in Android 2.1, but fully support an Android 2.2 upgrade.
