T-Mobile Gets Motorola ROKR E8

The Motorola ROKR E8 will be made available to T-Mobile subscribers come July 7th, retailing for $199.99 with a 2-year service plan. This flagship device might come with a whole lot of cool bells and whistles, but I don't think it will do anything to spark off a Moto-frenzy anytime soon. While it will probably be able to make enough money to recoup the investment and development costs of the handset, it won't be the definitive product that will help turn Motorola as a company around. For the interested, here are the features and specifications :-

  • 2" 320 x 240 display
  • Touch-sensitive scroll arc
  • 2GB internal memory
  • microSD memory card slot
  • Supports WMA, AAC, AAC+, MP3, WAV, and RealAudio files
  • Bluetooth connectivity
  • Integrated FM radio
  • 2 megapixel camera
  • Built-in FM radio, Web browser
  • CrystalTalk noise-reduction technology
Anyone spot the missing feature? Yes, I'm talking about the customary 3G connection that any phone worth its salt should have these days.

This is a break through device for T-mobile. Only thing missing is 3g, we should have a model that will work on the new network later in the year.
Easy to use, sleek and a nice step back into the US market after the Razor and "sister phones!
Check it out, you wont be unhappy!!!!!

Im with T-Mobile but I bought an unlocked Moto ROKR Z6 because I didnt like any of the phones they had. Love my Z6 and if its any good similar or better Im so getting one. The Z6 had a really good 2.0mp camera with a flash that stayed on and didnt "flash" for those night pics.
