camera phones is that one would have only one device instead of

player. Every major cell phone manufacturer has them.
Sony Ericsson introduced the Walkman phones, Motorola launched
the ROKR iTunes and Nokia delivers music phones under the
XpressMusic phone brand.

more than double the number of portable MP3 players and some 12
percent of cell phones sold in 2005 were music phones.
