ROKR E8 waiting in the wings

Motorola has the ROKR E8 up waiting in the wings, boasting a rather different design that somewhat resembles the Q9h when viewed from the side. The front section comes with a unique keyboard that features “buds” as keys, illuminating to reveal the characters each bud represents. Linux-Java will be the operating system of choice, and other features include 2GB of internal memory, a microSD memory card slot, stereo Bluetooth connectivity, and a 2 megapixel camera. Whenever the multimedia player is opened, the standard navigation keys and numeric buttons will be hidden, having the dedicated music shortcut keys light up instead. There is currently no word on pricing or availability.
