Motorola ROKR EM30
Today, LiMo is welcoming a new handset again, Motorola ROKR EM30. This candy bar cellphone has become the 22nd handsets of LiMo Platform. Just for your information, yesterday this yet another open source mobile platform has also accepted four new handsets from Motorola, Panasonic, and NEC.
As you might already guessed, this ROKR EM30 is a quad band music-centric cellphone. It will run on GSM networks and supports global roaming. But not only that, ROKR EM30 is also featuring LCD display, D-Pad navigation, and built-in GPS for Location-based services.
Taiwan will be the lucky market to grab this E8’s brother. While other market will soon to follow in the same quarter. Unfortunately, there are no information yet on its price. However, if only it is not far away than the ROKR E8 functionalities, I want to predict that it can be reached at $300 to $350.

The lack of numbers and letters on this phone’s keypad turned me off. Aside from that, it looks pretty slick.
