Motorola ROKR E8

Another new release form Motorola comes the ROKR E8, the phone has no physical keys and is completely smooth.

When the phone is powered off, the surface of ROKR E8 is smooth, and no visible keys. Once you power on the phone you basically get a virtual numbered keypad on the front surface. With one simple “press” of the virtual music key, the phone keypad disappears and control keys for the music player appear in its place.

The 2GB internal memory can store up to 1,500 songs and if you choose to use external memory this is expandable up to 4GB. With FM radio and a microUSB plug the phone is Linux-based and look really nice to boost.

The ROKR E8 is expected to be available in Q1 2008
