Also - it was pointed that simply glueing an iPod Nano onto the back of a Motorola V3 RAZR gave you a hybrid device that is actually smaller than the ROKR while holding 10x (up to 1000 tracks) the songs and being capable of recording video, showing that the ROKR was presumably designed for the low cost teenage hybrid device market - SMR (UK)

The type of the device is stated as "Smartphone / Audio Player". The smartphone page states "A key feature of a smartphone is that additional applications can be installed on the device." ROKR by no means supports installation of native applications, only Java midlets with limited features (no bluetooth, no camera access; filesystem and phonebook access requires Motorola digital signature (although there are hacks to remove this limitation)).

The article states that iTunes no longer supports the ROKR. Is this currently true? I ask because the other iTunes phones were briefly unsupported after the release of iTunes 7, but iTunes 7.0.1 and 7.0.2 restored compatibility. It stands to reason that the same holds true to the ROKR, and the article simply hasn't been updated since 7.0.1 or 7.0.2 have been released. But I don't own a ROKR, so I'm posting this in the Talk section, rather than editing the article.

kpmsrtd@hotmail.com - That part about the ROKR not working on music downloaded after 2006 is bogus. I continue to download music and play it on my ROKR through late 2007. I recently (late 2007) purchased several albums from the iTunes store, and have been playing them on my ROKR, with no problems. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.30.98.249 (talk) 01:08, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please update this page to include the ROKR z6m? It's the CDMA version of this phone, but it is basically a music-oriented RIZR, so I'm not sure where this goes. If it helps, I recently got it and I use AlltelMeemat (talk) 06:03, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
