Alltel launches Motorola MOTOROKR Z6m slider

It looks like Alltel is jumping on board the MOTOROKR train. The attractive Motorola MOTOROKR Z6m musicphone has hit the Alltel network as the slider of choice for fans of Motorola’s slick design and music-centric features.


With stereo Bluetooth, 3.5mm headphone jack, microSD card slot, and USB 2.0 connectivity, the $130 (after contract and rebate) MOTOROKR Z6m is sure to appeal to the hip-and-stylish set with a mind for penny pinching - this isn’t the Z6tv so you won’t get any mobile TV, but you’ll pay a bit less.Check out that interesting “tattoo” etching on the keypad (there’s also some tattooing on the backside), it looks pretty cool. If this thing had some decent on-board storage, it’d blast the Samsung Juke right out of the water - it’s soo much prettier. Actually, even without the onboard storage capacity of the Juke, the Alltel MOTOROKR Z6m could give Verizon a run for it’s money/customers.
