Can someone tell me why would you get this phone rather than the SE K750i? This phone is new but only has 0.3MP camera, no radio, no infrared and it's priced like it was a high end new technology!!! 0.3MP camera, this is a total joke

Brilliant phone, all the features you'd expect of a modern phone. Haven't had any major problems with it, the surround sound speakers are amazing, and the bass is really good too. iTunes can be a bit slow, and the battery tends to run low quite quickly if loudspeaker is used for music. Apart from that, great.

wen i read reviews on this site it says its not so good. people its only the first iTunes fone. they will be bringin out new brands of iTunes fones in the future. this is a really gd fone but i have to say the VGA camera is a dissapointment the w800i has a better camera. but thats the thing: sony ericsson are bringin out the W900i with 3G so dnt get the W800 get the motorola E1 ROKR because the w800i is already old and it will take ages for the W900i to cum out so im gonna get this fone and get the W900i on XMAS 2006
good luck on choosin i hope this helped

I was really excited about getting this phone but then found out only once I actually got it that I can't even run the software for it on my computer because I run on Win 98 and it requires 2000 or XP. This sucks because I can't put any music on my phone AT ALL!!! grrrr!

I have had the ROKR for four weeks now. I couldn't figure out how to send files via Bluetooth but you can and I'll tell you how. First turn Bluetooth on. Connect with the other person's phone. This probably can be done by the other person sending you a picture or file. Once connected. Go to the picture or video on your ROKR and click the menu button which is the 4 lines button. Then scroll down to COPY and select that. Then you'll have the option of either the phone/memory card or bluetooth. It will show the phone if the file your copying is in the memory card and vis virsa. So anyways click on bluetooth which will then show a list of devices which your connected to and if not connected click on [Look for Devices} which will connect you. The phone will seek who ever your trying to send a file to and then it will send it. It's complicated and I thought that this phone couldn't do it but it can!

Review
i got the ROKR E1 on upgrade from o2 after using the nokia 7610 for my 1st year which was quite a nice phone, i orignally wanted the W800i but the upgrade advisor convinced me to take the E1 as i could get a better tariff with it - (i am still inside my 14 day piece of mind actually) i've been using the handset for about 1 week and so far im still a bit unsire weather to keep the phone, the iTunes feature is great and the stereo speakers perform really well and is saome of the best mp3 playback i have heard, i would say it easily competes with the W800i - but here is where it turns wrong, this could have been such a great phone, if Motorola had just put more work in it, the camera is only VGA quality and pictures look really grainy compaired to crisp and clear like that of the W800i, also the bluetooth feature is really appaling, you can't even send files via bluetooth - a basic expectation from phones now adays, however the lighting up speakers are nice, but then you consider you cant even use mp3 ringtones - to say this is an upgrade i am not sure wether to class it as a degrade as i prefer the 7610 to this, but i like the mp3 capability - in short - wait for the W800 to come back in stock, it is way better than the ROKR E1
Suggested additional features
a bluetooth feature that works like that of a nokia or SE, at least a 1MP camera, video recording capability
Hints and tips for other owners
When doing your first load up of music from iTunes dont think that you have to download all new music from iTunes music store, just use file then add folder to libary to import mp3's to iTunes etc, also have about 20 - 40 minutes spare as the transfer rate is abismal
My opinion as viewable on http://mobilereviews.o2.co.uk/userreview/showreview?reviewId=413 - personally i find the E1 as a W800i want to be as i express here - go for an W800i if you want a really portibale multimedia centre than the E1......

I used this ROKR E1 for a day and I am on the plan to return this phone.
this software doesn't work really fast, you have to wait long time if you want to put mp3 file. This phone really tests my patient when I tried to put music on.
