Motorola Company Overview: Motorola started as Galvin Manufacturing Corporation in 1928. The name Motorola was adopted in 1947, but the word had been used as a trademark since the 1930s. Founder Paul Galvin came up with the name Motorola when his company started manufacturing car radios. A number of early companies making phonographs, radios, and other audio equipment in the early 20th century used the suffix "-ola", the most famous being Victrola; there was also a company that made jukeboxes called Rockola, and a film editing device called a Moviola.
Audio Playback: The Motorola E310 does not come with an MP3 player. This phone comes with built in polyphonic ringtones, which means you can download simple MIDI files from the Internet and upload them through your phone, or simply download them via GRPS (if GRPS is built in). We do not recommend purchasing polyphonic ringtones from pay-per-use services such as television commercials, because the E310 is capable of receiving them as MIDI files which are common on the Internet.
Video and Picture Taking: The Motorola E310 is not equipped with a camera or a video recording function.
Messaging and Internet: The Motorola E310 is not capable of accessing the Internet, due to the limitations of GPRS access. Unfortunately, there is no MMS capability. Unfortunately, the Motorola E310 lacks the modern ability of t9 intelligent text messaging. Without this feature, text messages take much longer to type.
Connectivity and Interactivity: With the E310, you can't really do much when connecting to other devices, since it's USB capabilities are limited to nill.
