Motorola ROKR Mobile Phones
The Motorola ROKR has the distinction of being the first mobile phone with Apple iTunes. The ROKR series has since evolved from the E1 model to the E6 model and on to the Z6 slider. And now there are MOTOROKR headsets too. [MORE...]
The original Motorola ROKR with iTunes has a color display for viewing album art and features built-in dual-stereo speakers, as well as stereo headphones that also serve as a mobile headset with microphone.
The ROKR brand name has created a few trends of its own like the O ROKR PRO Bluetooth Stereo Eyewear, combining hands-free communication, music streaming, and Oakley's high definition optics. Also, see MOTOROKR S9 Bluetooth headset.
Motorola's ROKR Z6 is a slider-style Linux/Java music phone with Windows Media technologies, enabling "plug and play" with personal computers.
With an external memory slot, you can load up 2GB microSD cards; that's about 1,000 songs or 70 hours of music. The ROKR Z6 allows you to synch purchased music from over 200 music stores, including Napster, onto the device from your PC.
The newer ROKR Z6 joins the ROKR E6 touchscreen music phone as part of the Motorola portfolio of phones with full MP3 player capabilities and music-optimized headsets like the MOTOROKR S9.
The original Motorola ROKR with iTunes has a color display for viewing album art and features built-in dual-stereo speakers, as well as stereo headphones that also serve as a mobile headset with microphone.
Apple's iTunes software on the trendsetting ROKR (pronounced "Rocker") features easy-to-use menus, simple navigation and playback, and the ability to simply switch from phone to music and back again with the push of a dedicated music key.
"We've worked closely with Motorola to deliver the world's best music experience on a mobile phone," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO.
Loaded With Multimedia
Music fans can randomly autofill or manually fill the mobile phone with playlists from their favorite music, audiobooks and Podcasts from their iTunes library via a USB connection.
The ROKR pauses music automatically when users take a call and offers the ability to listen to music while messaging with friends or snapping a photo.
iTunes software for Mac and Windows can be downloaded free from the iTunes Music Store.
