Today Motorola confirmed that it is working on a new Android phone that it plans to sell directly to consumers through Google. Will its unnamed device be the Nexus Two? Perhaps.There's zero surprise in learning that Motorola plans to offer an Android phone directly to consumers through the new sales model Google is attempting to carve out with is Nexus line of Android devices. Motorola co-CEO Sanjay Jha said as much during the company's fourth quarter earnings call today, "We plan to launch ... at least one direct-to-consumer device with Google."

Jha didn't say anything more about that specific device. It may be called the Nexus Two, or some other Nexus-branded equivalent. Jha had a lot of other interesting things to say about its device portfolio for 2010. Here's the full transcription from Seeking Alpha:

Motorola had previously confirmed that it was going to target about 20 new smartphones for 2010, with most of them (if not all) running Google's Android operating system. We've already seen one, the Backflip that's headed to AT&T later this quarter. I expect Motorola to unveil about two Android phones per month for the rest of the year.

Jha also talked up its MOTOBLUR social networking service. He said:

This is all good news. Motorola needs to make some changes to its social networking software. In particular, I am interested in seeing tweaks to how it manages Twitter follower lists in the contact database. Also, creating its own media-syncing software (or partnering with an outside developer) would be a great help to those Android owners looking to more easily transfer media back and forth on their device.
