First the Nexus 5, now this - seems companies can't keep quiet on their own websites when it comes to unannounced products these days.

Motorola looks to have spilled the beans as a listing for something called the Moto G appeared on its website earlier today. Engadget and Droid Life both made the spot, but the reference has since been removed. A moto-g.com link went to nowhere.

Recent reports have pointed to a budget phone known as the Moto DVX coming from the Google-owned company, and Motorola recently trademarked "Moto G." The trademark covered both phones and accessories, so the G in question could be the new name for the budget DVX or another item all together.

With a recent price drop of the Moto X in the US, all signs are pointing to a Motorola announcement of some sort coming down soon.

BlackBerry has confirmed BBM for iOS and Android will be gaining new features "within months" as Voice and Video calls are lined up to join the IM offering.

Anyone currently rocking a BlackBerry 10 device can make free voice and video calls (as long as your data plan/Wi-Fi covers it) to other BlackBerry users using the Canadian firm's BBM application - but these features are set to become more universal.

Andrew Bocking, BlackBerry's VP of BBM, confirmed to Canadian broadcaster CBC that the update to the newly launched BBM app for Google and Apple devices would be arriving in the near future.

Money, money, money

BlackBerry offers its BBM service free of charge and it raised eyebrows when it announced that its premium messaging service would be taking the leap onto rival platforms - especially considering the firm's rocking financial standing.

There is a money-making end game however, with Bocking also confirmed that the BBM Channels feature would be making the transition to Android and iOS soon - although we're still waiting for an exact release date.

BBM Channels are, in short, a way for companies to gain a presence on BBM and ultimately a way for BlackBerry to sell ads and sponsored posts on the platform - think of them like Facebook Pages merged with company Twitter accounts.

While Channels is yet to take off it a big way just yet, the addition of 10 million new BBM users on two new platforms could well boost the appeal and eventually make BlackBerry a few bucks in the process.

LG has officially unveiled its first smartphone with a curved display, in the form of the 6-inch LG G Flex.

Following a series of leaks, the Korean company has lifted the lid on the handset which curves vertically from top to bottom, rather than horizontally like the rival Samsung Galaxy Round.

The device, which will only be on sale in South Korea, carries a 720p display, is powered by a Qualcomm 800 Snapdragon processor with 2GB of RAM. It's also got a 13-megapixel camera and a 3500mAh battery.

The real news, of course, is the presence of the curve, which LG says offers better ergonomics for making calls, holding and, of course watching video, which it likens to watching a movie in IMAX.

The Wolverine phone

Interestingly, there's also a completely new feature; a self healing coating on the rear of the device which LG says will eliminate scratches on the rear of the device within minutes.

In its press release the company likens the new tech to Wolverine from the X-Men. Naturally.

The device, which also features the rear-mounted volume keys a la the LG G2, will launch in Korea next month, but the company is mum on a potential roll out around the world.

Like the Samsung Galaxy Round, this could be a test model for a future launch around MWC 2013.

The Nexus 5 release date has been the subject of fervent speculation in recent weeks and, to be honest, we thought it'd be here by now.

Google has yet to announce a launch event for the eagerly anticipated Android 4.4 KitKat device, and the latest online estimates have suggested the company may wait until the October 31 to pull the trigger.

However, ever-prolific Twitter leak artist @evleaks weighed in on Sunday suggesting the device will be arriving on November 1, which is this coming Friday.

Along with a press render of the device in white, the anonymous leakster wrote: "In white. 11/1."

Wait nearly over?

Of course that is open to interpretation. It's unlikely that Google would hold a launch event on a Friday, so November 1 could be the on-sale date?

Anyway, we shouldn't have to wait to long to find out. Or will we...
