The Motorola Rokr (pronounced rocker) E1 is a decent cellular phone that costs just under $2,000 and is the first such device built with Apple Computer's iTunes software.
But an iPod phone it is not, and it's nowhere near being one. It could best be described as the iPod Shuffle's poor cousin.
The Rokr is a tri-band GSM phone that features a 176 x 220 pixel video graphics array camera, Bluetooth connection, multimedia messaging service support, dual built-in stereo speakers and stereo headphones that also serve as a mobile phone headset with a microphone.
The phone pauses music automatically when users take a call. Users have the ability to listen to music while checking messages or taking a photo.
I found the internal speakers were loud enough for listening to music with a reasonable quality without the headphone, just do not expect a resonant bass.
But I also found the Rokr identical to Motorola's earlier released E398 model, another decent - albeit not showy - phone.
