The Motorola ROKR E8 uses ModeShift technology to present users with only the controls they need, at the time they need them, transforming from music player to phone with the touch of a button. Powered off, the surface is smooth, with no visible keys. Power on the ROKR E8 and it presents a virtual numbered keypad on the front surface. With one press of the virtual music key, the handset keypad disappears and control keys for the music player appear in its place. Through vibrating haptics technology, the ROKR E8 also offers the tactile feedback consumers expect from a traditional keypad. The new FastScroll navigaton wheel is a variable-speed touch control that lets users scroll more conveniently. With a gentle slide of the thumb, the wheel quickly scrolls through the music (music mode), contacts (phone mode), calendar (phone mode), or multimedia (imaging mode) content.
