Motorola ROKR E3 Possible Photo Leak

Well you know where I got this. Heck if you see this anywhere you know where we all got it, Engadget. Love that site, please bookmark it. Now.

Anyway the photo you see is of what they, me, we, all of us are believing to be the next ROKR from Motorola.

Here are the ROKR E3 Speculated Specs

* GSM/GPRS/EDGE
* 512MB memory built-in
* Transflash Memory slot
* Bluetooth
* 1.3 megapixel camera
* 3.5mm headphone jack
* quad-directional quick-wheel

All I can say is if you’re looking to have just one phone this year, you are going to have a hard time trying to choose.

If you don’t know already, there is a two phone minimum.

One for work and one for play.

The phone shown in the most recent photo (above) is not too far off from the drawings that were shown a while back (below). If we can learn anything from the past, then we already know that the device on the left is indeed the ROKR E2 so we could be sure the phone on the right will be the ROKR E3 (maybe).

Now I thought Motorola was going to stop releasing info and photos of products so it will be able to stay ahead of the competition and copycat devices.

So far there are mixed reactions regarding the look of the E3. To add to that I’m just a bit baffled as to why they would “leak” this so soon behind the ROKR E2.

2006 maks it official. 90 day shelf life for the wow factor.

Note to handset manufacturers, if you show a product it needs to be released within 30 – 60 days.

Another thing 1.3 megapixel camera? You must be kidding. It’s 2006 there is a 2 to 3 megapixel standard.
