New Motorola ROKR iTunes Phone

by colbert low on September 9th, 2005

Motorola ROKR

Personally, I don’t listen to MP3 much. So having a phone that can download tunes is just out of my league. I still prefer my trusty FM radio to tune in to contests. One notable feature that rocks on this phone is the estimated 9 hours of talk time, enough time for mushrooms to grow on your head.

To clear up the first big question: 100 song capacity, and it uses an iTunes-like interface. It’s a tri-band GSM phone, color screen, built-in camera with stereo speakeres and a mobile headset. One button access to iTunes, USB 2.0 connection for transferring songs and random autofill or manual fill.

PC or Mac, natch, and the music pauses when you get a call (duh!) and resumes when you finish (ahh). It’s 3.7 ounces, 4.25-inches long and under an inch thick. On this display side, just 262 colors (176 x 220) to support the VGA camera, 4x zoom and video recording. Talk time: 9 hours.

Funnily I just found on Engadget that the new iTunes phone has a cap of 100 tracks that can be downloaded to it. Ironically, the ROKR E1 has a generic, non-iTunes, Java-based media player that can play as many MP3s as you have room for on your card.
