T-Mobile U.S. Is A Hard ROKR

Motorola only recently announced the ROKR E8, an admittedly hot little candybar sporting a pathetic 2 megapixel camera, though also toting 2GB of internal memory and quad-band GSM. The cool part of the phone is the haptic touchpad that also changes keys depending on what menu is currently being used.

Ewan was quite taken with the device when it was shown off at CES, and it seems that T-Mobile US feels the same way. Photos have come up with the device showing off a back-tatt from the U.S. GSM carrier, along with the MyFaves logo.

Considering that they don’t have their own music store OR a specific partnership in line with any of the popular music services such as Napster or Rhapsody, T-Mobile sure does release quite a few music-centric handsets. Other recent music handsets include Nokia’s 5300, the Samsung ‘Beat’, Nokia 6263, and the Motorola RAZR2.

One can’t help but wonder what exactly customers are using for their music fix, if anything.
