FCC Leaks Details on the Motorola ROKR E8

Moto Rokr E8 Has Backlit Nubs For Keys

When you're dialing, all the keys are lit; but when you're playing music, the numbers are dimmed and only the music controls are bright. This could be even greater if the keys' backlit images could change in the background, but it doesn't seem like the E8 is advanced enough to do that. [Zol.com via IDNES via Phonearena]
