Amen to that!! Verizon has had the same damn phones forever. A couple of new smart phones but nothing new. All of their clams look and function almost the same. Cingular and Sprint both have new phones coming.....Come on VZW...get with it.

The internal memory is 24 MB, expandable through miniSD slot – pretty much all bells and whistles one can desire. Still Verizon Wireless availability has not been officia ...

The phone is really something. If you look close enough, you can tell it's looking back at you, wanting...anticipating...ravaging your fingers to be felt up its buttons.

Pretty sexy phone, eh?
