- kevinrose, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3looks pretty cool - much thinner. It's like a Razor/Rokr combo. I see the camera says "VGA", that sucks - at least throw in a 1.x MP camera
- MWWLSE, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Buy the phone of your choice, buy super glue, glue phone to ipod nano, DONE.
- theantidote, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2THIS IS NOT THE NEXT ITUNES PHONE!!!!
You must understand that this is not the next iTunes phone, Motorola will be releasing most of their next-gen, non 3G phones with the iTunes software. For example the new RAZR will have iTunes software on it. - Tonyisbad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Now if they made it look like the RAZR or that new one from sprint with the flipping screen that would be cool
- neo7779, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Ahh No click wheel.
When is Apple going to just redesign the planet so we can live in a utopia.
I want a car that drives using only a click wheel. - frequeniquity, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1forgot to say...no headphone jack? Proprietary headphones? ugh.
- northlan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Apple just needs to design their own phone and release it unlocked and sell it from the Apple Store. They would most likely have an instant hit. I know I would buy one. I'm sure they thought about this.
- tortan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1go buy a iPod nano, and a moto razr, and duct tape them together. done.
- your_mom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this is anotehr piece of crap. like otehr said when is APPLE gonna design a REAL iTunes phone. both of those phones are crap. really.
- MisterKen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Had my ROKR for exactly 8 days.
Bad sound, classic Motorola battery pig.
The guy at the Cingular store said it's the most returned phone they have ever had.
Now it comes in black!
I think I'll just hot glue a Nano to the back of my Nokia. - da_bradler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0still looks pretty ugly to me
- Stopher, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Looks pretty sexy but no headphone jack? That's retarded. Someone should smack the Motorolla product development team upside the head with the +1 2x4 of common sense.
- jla1987, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Definitely looks so much better than the ROKR
- superal1394, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0this looks just like a rokr with the keypad from the razr black...
- zenghost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0is it me or does it look like a miniature version of the RAZR... man this thing looks like crap..
- justinyeoman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Psykus: We're lucky we even got that, read the Wired article about the ROKR. The carriers want to control the buying and selling of songs ala Sprint.
- mpeters13, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0MOTOROLA! YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG.
- Linuxrocks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This looks just like the old phone though..
- Steaminx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I bought a phone like 2 days ago and i'm def buying this!
- Choppy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"AHAH! Moto has got you now! Now you have to shell out for their $80 bluetooth headphones, instead of Rocking the always clashing orange earbuds that came with teh smashing hit ROKR. MOTO you so LOCO."
From the comment section... so sad yet so true.A headphone jack would be so much simpler... - mikeallen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0why use an i-tunes phones? 100 song limit? buy an mp3 phone, which start around $100 (not $250 like the rokr) and a flash card (under $100) and load as many as you can fit. and then at least have a good phone. the rokr had bad interface and a huge return rate, i bet this phone will be near the same.
- underpants, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0WEAK!
- seanraf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Its sorta like Motorola has made 2 separate phones with the functionality that should be in one. The ROKR should have looked like the SLVR and have bluetooth. But the SLVR should have had built in memory and a HEADPHONE JACK!
If Moto gets it right next time, count me in. So long if the price is reasonable, I ain't rich. - Lynxpro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0
Nice, but I want a clamshell/flip phone that does iTunes.
When will we see a PEBL or a RAZR that does iTunes? Before Christmas? - maloney_633, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would buy if it had a headphone jack. I would expect somethings to be common since. apple can't make there own phone because they would have to provide survice and the cell phone towers.
- ProAm500, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The phones released here in the US are so behind everywhere else...Ill stick with my Samsung Z300, until the I300 is released....(with no Windows Mobile I might add :( )......
- Mark_H, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I like the idea of cell phones and MP3 players, but not together. I really don't think a few seconds' convenience not having to turn off your MP3 player and turn on your phone are not worth the lack of storage that an MP3 player offers.
- DannyMurphy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That phone is ugly.
I wish Apple would design the phone themselves. rather than put their quality software on a substandard looking phone. - Mark_H, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0^^ should be are worth the lack..., not are not worth the lack.
- MikeZ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Now that's slick, the 1st gen looked just clunky, but why would you what it still if you can get a cool ipod video or nano. Anyway my Nokia 6230 plays music i can put a 1GB card in to and Liston to my thought some nokia ear-buds and its smaller that the itunes phone put just doesn't look as cool and its not as compatible with some blue-tooth devices. also it the nokia 6230 plays video. most phones play video now.
- Psykus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"and a TransFlash memory card slot for storing up to *100* iTunes tracks"
Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid....
Stupid!
Arg, it makes no logical sense, why in the world would they limit the phone to 100 songs when you can obviously store more? - sfacets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0decent? It's crap? Look how bloody thick it is! And stiff-looking! Ugh! They should let apple design the phone, at least the outside...
- petard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0WTF is wrong with the motorola interface? I can navigate it perfectly and makes PERFECT SENSE! And if you dont like the navigation, CUSTOMIZE IT! MOTOs are VERY moddable! And this is NOT an iTunes phone, it is a phone with iTunes, like almost all the phones they will be selling are! HOLY CRAP people! You always have to complain about everything, and I bet most of the complainers here are not even thinking of BUYING ONE!
- tortan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Come on, make it a flip phone already.
- dickzorz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0they had one of these on ebay for around $1000. it looks like a razr and a rokr had a kid. its awesome.
- aragolas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0is it pronounced
silver
or
sliver
----SLVR - amitrix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dang! thats a nice piece of technology by itune!
- meekar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ugly ugly ugly buttons
so sad ...
Why isn't Apple getting more into the designing process? Is Motorolla just being a b*tch? - DogHumpsMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Am I the only one that wants their phone to just be a phone? I don't care about a camera in a phone, I have thousands of dollars worth of cameras. I don't care about music on a phone, my nano doesn't take up that much space. I have a Moto V710 right now, and if they came out with a software update that added iTunes, I wouldn't even bother because I'd never use it anyway.
- DiddyWolf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0UGLY @_x
- DSunstrum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0junk - I'd rather just hold an ipod to my ear - it would look better. The brand has a look, the form is important. The form has/look is everything the ipod is. Get with it. Dug, but dang burn it!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0still no click whell :(
- havoc1381, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Not really a large leap forward from their last offering. I still think we are a few generations from a phone/music player most people would like to own and spend money on.
- jk_baller23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Couldn't Apple make their own phone if they wanted to. They don't have to provide service or build towers. They'll just use a sim card/chip and you should be able to choose whatever service you want to go with. Anyway, looks better than the previous model, but it doesn't grab my attention that much. I'll still carry my phone and ipod seperate.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0OMG! I can't believe people in Motorola still don't get it. Just because you pair your best-selling Razr phone with the most-popular iTunes does not mean this new gadget will be an instant success. Not to mention the new phone just looks SIMILAR to Razr :)
- ThankTheCheese, on 10/12/2007, -0/+01) the phone is ugly
2) iTunes interface looks stretched and ugly
3) If the phone can only hold 100 songs, why would you even need an app like iTunes to organise them? - Chewie67, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ugh. That thing looks like the remote for the VCR I bought in 1992.
- silentauthority, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0headphone thing is gay, but it looks better than the piece of junk rokr
- UnderLoK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Where is the startac w/ mp3?!
- terafunker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Will we be seeing a RAZR with iTunes, or are those f***s at Motorola just aiming to lose business?
