Judging from these pics, this software is nothing special. More like a basic interface for AAC audio file playback. I hope the phone itself is more impressive. :( <br /><br />The article goes on to say the iTunes Phone will launch in mid-July. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/moto_itunes_int.jpg" />

This is off-topic, but what OS does Motorola run on its phones? Is it their own proprietary software or a third party system?

While they were a part of the Symbian alliance in the past, they quit that mafia and are using their own software (or possibly licensed from someone else, but closed and proprietary). Could the fonts be any uglier and un-readable? 8O

They look like Arial narrow rendered at 72dpi.
(Or a squashed eurostile.)
Haven't seen fonts that bad since the dot-matrix printer days.

That's the typical Motorola OS font for their consumer phones.

The interface looks like the one for the iPod Photo from what I have seen of it. So it seems to be keeping with the iPod look and feel.
