Is the Moto slate too little too late?

Motorola's new touchscreen phone

Motorola has had a leak of yet another handset, with a tablet-like phone full of all kinds of interesting features.

Engadget has managed to nab some pics of the new device from an anonymous tipster, with a 5MP camera with Kodak branding and a Xenon flash as well as the full touchscreen (which looks roughly 3.2-inches in size) making for an interesting new Moto effort.

Had Motorola brought out a touchscreen phone within months of the iPhone, and thrown the weight of its then-extensive R&D department behind it, then we could have seen a real renaissance for the brand.
