Apple is going to launch new ITunes Phone soon. How many of you think it will be a flip-phone??

Apple has partenered with Motorolla, which is famous for its flip-phone! Good news for flip-phone lovers

I think I'll stay away from it. My current phone does all I need it to do. I'm not sure how well a phone could reproduce music anyway.

But if they made it like the razor it would sure look sweet.

Apple knows the game too well at this stage! Here's another may-be iPhone:

I am not sure how good ITunes will be in a mobile phone. But it's a very good music player. with Preset equalizers.

The phone looks too ordinary. Shouldn't it look more like an ipod. The phone is nothing more then an official phone of Appple ,no?

It atleast lets you carry one thing for mobile phone + hearing music; rather than carrying two separate things.

No wonder why no one is talking about ROKR, its far from spectacular, just plain, boring Motorola, with an expandable memory and yet a ridiculous 100 songs maximum limit!

Try this gizmodo idea of 'NAZR' which is a Nano stuck to the back of Motorola's RAZR!

NAZR

I have an I pod shuffle. The battery life is a non issue because I use it as a memmory stick first and a music player second. And it is as small as a headphone volume controller. My mobile phone has 430 hours battery life can can this new phone beat that.

*yawn*

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/08/review_sony_ericsson_k750i/

been there and done that...i have had my sony ericsson k750i since june and it absolutely destroys that "itunes" phone. it plays MP3'S not some silly itunes format or what ever it is. i have a 1 gb memory stick which holds around 250 songs, which is good enough for me.

not only that but it also has a 2 megapixel camera(which is pretty good for a phone) and a FM radio.
