Motorola has officially taken the wraps off its first ROKR phone, the Motorola ROKR E1. Apple announced the device in tandem with Motorola at an event this morning in California. Motorola is throwing a party for the E1 this evening in NYC and MobileTracker will be there to get a hands-on look at the E1.

The Motorola ROKR E1 is a Cigular exclusive currently, but this is just the first of several ROKR models. Cingular is now selling the E1 for $249.99 with a 2-year service agreement.
