With Motorola rumored to launch the newly-“cool” PEBL successor this month (September), it makes sense for the press-blitz to get started. The Motorola ROKR U9 PEBL is finally getting its time in the spotlight with these new press shots. Up until now, all we’ve had to go on was that little teaser pic of the MOTOROKR U9 PEBL – but now we get a full-on barrage of ROKR U9 PEBL glamor shots.
The MOTOROKR U9 only gets 25MB of onboard memory, but the microSD card slot lets you expand your musicphone’s storage capacity to your liking. And the stereo Bluetooth, QVGA interior display, and GSM (EDGE-only, no 3G) radio hint at this thing being based on Motorola’s RAZR2 V8 internals. We’ll see what this month brings, but we’re going to bet that this revived PEBL will be rocking a full quad-band GSM radio.
The ROKR U9 measures a not-so-svelte (but oh so sleek) 90 x 48.6 x 16.4 mm body and tips the scales at a feather-weight 87.5 g. So, it’s not the slimmest musicphone out there, but that “ginormous” external touch-sensitive display more than makes up for the extra girth.
