When the Rokr iTunes handset disappeared from Cingular’s Website a lot of people thought the line had been discontinued, less than a quarter of a year after it had been introduced. Apparently that’s not the case: “A Cingular spokesperson has confirmed that it was the latter and the E1 will return once it can be re-stocked.”
It’s a simple case of misunderstanding, but it’s interesting that people so readily thought that a high-end handset had been removed from sale so soon after it was introduced — sure the reviews were bad, but were they really that bad? It’s also interesting that the phone sold out…so at least some people must be buying it…
