Motorola ROKR E6 gets FCC blessing

We certainly don't want to get anyone's hopes up over a possible US release — because frankly, with GSM 1900 the only American band in the box, we don't see it happening — but Motorola's Linux-tastic ROKR E6 just breezed through the FCC. The stylus-based device shares the design cues used extensively through Motorola's mainstream lineup, coming off with a polished look. Add in the 2-megapixel cam and the media capabilities foretold by its "ROKR" moniker, and this is a little bundle of open-source joy that we definitely wouldn't mind seeing hop the pond — if Moto can find it in its heart to pack in a UMTS radio or two.
