I don't know all technical details, because I don't have such a phone, but
after what I have read on the Motorola website you can use this phone with
iTunes like a ipod.
The problem is that currently all Motorola v3 series phones get detected as
ipod music player, with this patch only the v3i get detected this way.
I commit the patch.
