The phone, called V3im, is basically a V3i with 128MB internal memory and iTunes software. The device can take microSD cards, up to 512MB, but is limited to 100 Songs, no matter how much space you have available. The V3im is a quad-band (850/900/1800/1900MHz) GSM/GPRS phone with Bluetooth 1.2 on board. It's got a 1.23 megapixel camera with 8x zoom and a 176 x 220, 262,144-colour main display. It weighs 100g and measures 9.8 x 5.3 x 1.4cm. It will set you back £265 if you get SIM-free version.

why the hell is it limited to 100 songs?? thats just stupid.. :banghead: people will probably not buy them because its a i-tunes [MP3 phone] and people wanna put as many songs as they want on it.. not just limited to 100 songs.. there are other MP3 phones on the market..:wtf:
 
seems like people have managed to remove that limit and raise it 1000 songs ;)

cheers

or you can use the onboard java player and skip itunes,

remember its a V3i razr its slightly improved, but with normal use it will last 2-3 days,
with mp3 playing, get use to recharging it every 8-10 hours,

i had a motorola E398, its basicly the model on which the E1 rokr was based on, when i flashed the firmware the supported itunes on to the phone, magicly the battery went from 5 days to 2-3, it seems itunes runs in the background, and sucks alot of battery,
 
For that price you would be better off getting an Ipod Nano and a cheap cellphone.
 
those are actually new for 250 euros here in spain, thats the price of a 4gb nano,

atleast they are made of metal and resistant plastic,
unlike the ipod, which seems to be made from playdoh
