Motorola Trademark Holdings registers Motorola Turn domains [UPDATED]

Motorola Turn

This week, Motorola Trademark Holdings registered several domain names around the word “Turn” for some type of new consumer product. 

The domain purchases include names such as MotoTurn.com and MotorolaTurn.com.

It’s unknown at this time what may come of the Motorola Turn.  Will it be a mobile phone?  A tablet? Or some other product or accessory?

In mid February, the US Department of Justice approved the merger of Google and Motorola Mobility.

Here’s the full list of names that were registered on March 14, 2012, each of which are located on MotorolaMobility.com DNS servers according to the Whois records.
