Motorola Rokr E2
Template:Infobox Mobile phoneTemplate:Short description
The Motorola Rokr E2 (stylized Motorola ROKR E2), also marketed as MotoRokr E2, is a cell phone developed by Motorola, introduced at the Consumer Electronic Show of January 2006. The first public release occurred on June 22, 2006, in China.[1][2] It is a new design and effectively succeeded the Motorola Rokr E1, not featuring iTunes compatibility, instead the Rokr E2 runs a Linux feature phone operating system.
It has several enhancements over the much criticised Rokr E1, such as the addition of music controls (on the left hand side of the device), high speed USB 2.0 for faster syncing, and no forced limit to the number of song tracks.[3] In addition, it has a built in 3.5 mm headphone jack (without requiring an adapter), adds the A2DP Bluetooth profile for use with wireless headphones,[4] and improved display and camera. The Motorola Rokr E2 also added a stereo FM radio.[3]
Features and software
The Rokr E2 can play back file formats: MP3, AMR, MID, MIDI, SMF, MMF, XMF, IMY, WAV, RA, WMA, AAC, AWB, MPGA, M4A, 3GA, RM, RMVB, 3GP, MP4 by RealPlayer.
Using a new feature called iRadio, FM radio programs can be downloaded onto the phone through Internet.[5]
The Motorola Rokr E2 runs EZX, a Linux operating system[6] that previously shipped with the Motorola A780 PDA, and a user interface called Chameleon UI. As it is a Linux phone, the open source community developed numerous modifications to the phone's software, such as quad band, EDGE, and support for a 4 GB SD card. Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Some have overclocked the processor.
The phone software also comes with Opera 8.50 web browser and e-mail support.[6]

Motorola Rokr E2 was released in China and other territories in Asia and in South America, but unlike the Rokr E1 was not released in North America.[7]
