why would they do that? I wonder if maybe Apple is responsible for it, and they are perhaps creating their own iPhone?
I've read that about two months ago... Ah yeah: In January even... -> http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2006/01/20060103020032.shtml
And about the reasons: Have you ever seen how *bad* an iTunes phone it is? Slow as molasses the interface, there's a, what, 100 MB or 100 song limit or something? If I were Apple, I'd not allow Moto to make any more iTunes phones until _Apple's_ in charge of everything about the iTunes client, fonts included. But I guess it's the hardware, too. Either way: I don't think the world misses much if Moto's phone have no iTunes.

i've heard it's actually apple's fault this has happened. apple has placed a 100 song limit on their itunes software so as not to hurt their ipod sales. motorola have got annoyed with this and gone elsewhere for their software.
