If you like a song that is playing anywhere near you can record the song and it will identify the name of the song for you.

As a mid-range phone, the Motorola ZN300 truly is a good handset that packs in great design and attractive features. We love the new design and social network friendly applications. However, there are many other mid-range phone out there, ZN300 definitely facing a tough competition and the wining point for ZN300 probably is the new and fresh design.
