You like certain features on a cellphone, but you wish they came in a flip phone rather than a slider or a candybar or in a slider instead of a flip phone, or – you get the idea.

Well, if you like music phones with built-in FM radios, Motorola has a ROKR in all three styles.

The ROKR EM30 (near right) is a candybar, the ROKR EM28 (bottom right) is a flip or clamshell with touch-sensitive keys and the ROKR EM25 (top right) is a slider with FM radio transmitting capabilities – it'll play the tracks on your ROKR through your car's radio system. The EM30 and the EM28 both operate on the GSM EDGE network.

Each includes an FM RDS radio to provide the name of the artist and song playing, can play multiple digital music formats, and is equipped with industry standard microUSB jacks, a standard 3.5mm headphone jack and stereo Bluetooth for wireless music listening.

While Motorola wouldn't say, they're likely to be available from T-Mobile like their big brother, the ROKR E8, probably in the next month or so, and probably for less than $100 with contract and rebates.
