The Motorola ROKR E8 had only 2GB internal memory but there was an interesting touch-sensitive keypad and a useful Navi-wheel, but it far from its rivals, and it only got officially released at the Mobile World Congress.

The E10, however has more possibility as it hasn’t been released, according to sources, there is a touchscreen, a 3 megapixel camera with autofocus, and 3G. This isn’t enough to win the mobile market, as enough internal memory would be necessary to even think of competing against the upcoming devices.

I had written some posts about Kodak and Motorola working together on a new camera sensor. According to the sources, it was a 5 megapixel camera phone, but we had no further information, and it wasn’t even released during Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

A new video spotted by Staska at Unwired View resurrects the rumour, and gives us a graphical view of the upcoming phone.

And here is the video:

That was kind of unofficial, but Cellpassion got a glimpse of it.

It seems that there aren’t many changes, only exterior ones, Nokia realised that the E90 needed a plastic surgery for better build quality. I’m not sure how "better" this edition is, but according to most sources, it’s worth to wait for this than buy the regular E90.

If you look to the E90 in the picture you will notice that it has a new colour, it seems bigger, and has no scratches on the display, unlike it’s counterpart on the right.

I don’t know why I did bother posting this on the blog, but I guess I have to complete the line-up on the most important brand phones that were released at Mobile World Congress.

The W181 should be a cheap alternative to most black and white display phones and it’s clearly directed to the African and Indian market as it supports 7 African languages and Hindi. The display has 65k colours and 128 x 128 pixels of resolution.

There’s absolutely no memory available for the user, not a card slot, no Java compatibility or a MP3 player. There is simply space for 750 SMS and 500 entries for the phonebook.

No GPRS or 3G, but a Dual Band frequency, and a US version.

To make the users happy (sort of), there are 3 built-in games. Yay!
