Cell Phone Journey to the iPhone


Then, in 2004, that much needed direction came from Motorola in the form of the Razr V3. Similar to the StarTAC, it sold like hotcakes and was available through almost every major wireless carrier.Motorola tried to follow up the Razr V3 by introducing the Rokr (2005) which promised to be a music player and a cell phone. Unfortunately, the Rokr was a flop, but I feel that it still paved the way for other music enabled phones.During this time (2006ish), I owned a Windows Mobile device from T-mobile called the MDA. It was an OK product, mediocre at best, but it did what it was supposed, albeit a bit unintuitively. It had a slide out keyboard, had all the office translators, could surf the web, receive email and play music and videos. I hated it but it was the only thing the cell industry could offer me at the time.
