Though they’re not the first to pick it up, T-Mobile has announced that they’ll be featuring the Motorola ROKR as part of its handset lineup. It’s a neat little device, a candybar design with full music capabilities. This is backed by 2 gigabtyes of on-board memory, same as its rival, the Samsung Juke. I didn’t see word on microSD expansion, though. To be clear, this is the E8 model, quite different than the previous incarnation of the ROKR. It was displayed at CES back in January, and was a decent hit with the crowd there.

That’s the device that you’re going to see from T-Mo. And yes, it has all the extras like BlueTooth, browser, 2 megapixel camera, and an integrated media player. Once again, this is a music phone, so it’s main selling point is the multimedia capabilities and oodles of onboard memory.

Note that this is quite different than the ROKR Z6…

…which looks like the new RIZR:

No release date or price was announced for the ROKR E8.
