After adding music to the RAZR, SLVR, and most recently the RIZR, a source has confirmed that Motorola will soon announce a PEBL style clamshell for music. The ROKR U9 follows in the footsteps of the Z6 by taking on the ROKR model name and appears to add an external color display with music controls similar to the RAZR2 to the curvy model. So far no other details are known about the handset, though one picture clearly shows mini-USB headphones, so it appears to lack a 3.5mm jack, just like the Z6. With the U9 a clear pattern has also emerged in Moto's naming conventions. Confirming that the each letter represents a form factor and that the 9 indicates a high-end model line that will dominate Moto's lineup.

The phone in the pic is playing "Big Girls Don't Cry"...

...A subconscious plea for Motorola to not cry either?

"Sure, your sales have been declining all year. Buck up, Moto!"
That is freakin hilarious! Hahahahaha...

Hahaha, nice catch!

Stupid PEBL

What is the point behind the PEBL design? It looks just like an ordinary handset. Plus PEBLs are total junk.


Looks to me like a stinker.
Have you ever owned a PEBL?
You apparently haven't owned a pebl... I used one for months and never had a problem with it... personally I can't wait to see the new version... I just T-Mobile is the first to get it again! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

That's not our source. I've never even heard of that site, and we definitely didn't see that post when we wrote ours. If that had been our source, we would have gladly given credit where it was due, but that was not the case here.
How can you honestly say that this photo:

This won't help...

Moto's sagging sales! No way are these selling at any quick rate unless they are under $100... I guess this is one reason why they are already predicting a loss for the year!
