Confirming long-standing rumours, Apple has today announced the iTunes-enabled phone together with Motorola in a special press event. The phone will automatically pause when you get a call, explained Jobs. The ROKR can only hold about 100 songs, according to Jobs. "The way we think of this phone is, it's really an iPod shuffle on your phone," he explained. "Both devices can shuffle, both can autofill, neither has a click wheel - but the phone has a display." Meanwhile, Microsoft joins hands with Orange to challenge Apple Motorola iTunes Phone.

FM on a iPod is so STUPID!!
Why give up the control of listening what you want to listen to, when you want to listen to it and how often you want to listen to it, in exchange for low grade sounding FM noise, advertising, same lousy songs played over and over with a dull sounding DJ?
Apple is not another B&O
1: Apple provides real solutions and the slightly higher price pays for the innovation costs. Or you can live with your cheap virus infected creative zen.
B&O makes expensive stuff that really solves no problems or opens new markets that isn't already served by a zillion other makers at more down to earth prices.
$600 for each wireless phone that auto synchs with each other?
$16,000 for stereo speakers that combined produce 5,000 watts which if listened to for more than a few seconds would cause pernament hearing loss and shatter all the windows in your house? Not to mention a trip to jail.
