Photos: Motorola's sexy new Rokr E8 and Z10

Let's not beat around the bush. We went out to the Mobile World Congress expecting Motorola to be a little depressed post-lacklustre 2007 financial results and the loss of its CEO Ed Zander. But it wasn't.

Instead of moping around, Motorola brought along its two newest handsets, the Motorola Rokr E8 and Z10. These two handsets were announced out at CES earlier this year but this was the first time we'd been able to properly try them.

Fear not -- unlike the first Rokr handset to come out, which was so bad we were afraid to look at it -- the E8 is a superb music phone. That's right, Motorola has finally taken its finger out of the Razr pie and made an impressively good music phone.

Not only does the Rokr E8 look sexy, it's a well-conceived phone that combines the right balance of features -- a rare quality from Motorola.
