NEW YORK (Reuters) - Motorola Inc. expects next year to introduce new versions of its music-player Rokr phone, a top executive said on Wednesday.

The head of Motorola's mobile unit Ron Garriques said the company plans to launch a more stylish Rokr phone in the first quarter and will follow with another Rokr that can download songs wirelessly around mid year.

Okay, I am skeptical of most things, but IMO, RoKR always had a scrip to succumb. Why would Apple cannibalise its products. Anyway there are a couple of more options than iTunes. The phone, music device combo that RoKR presents may have its audience... I just hope this time they add better "direct" interactivity, than using a computer to manage music..
