Cingular will be announcing plans next week to offer the Motorola iTunes phone to its customers.

The long-awaited Motorola iTunes phone is expected to be unveiled at a promotional event in San Francisco next Wednesday, according to industry analysts.

Ovum, the UK-based telecommunications consultancy, said Cingular, which until recently was the exclusive distributor in the US of Motorola’s highly successful super-slim Razr phone, will also be the first to offer the iTune phone.
