4 new phones advertised, not the ONLY phones coming out.

The 4 Next phones are the ones being advertised as next phones because they are the hippest and are sure to be best sellers. Verizon isn't forgetting the other phones in the mix though.

Phones that will be out in the very near future:

Motorola Rizr
UTC-VX6800
Samsung I760
Samsung U-900
Palm 755p

plus others that I'm sure to be forgetting

Industry changes

I think it's important to note that VZW has responded well to changes in the industry. Customers want a reliable network, but are also now more concerned with having top of the line, cutting edge, innovative devices. VZW is delivering during the 4Q with all of the above. As an employee of the company, I am excited about the direction VZW is heading and can't wait to purchase the voyager...and the venus.

6800 already outdated

I've been waiting for the 6800 to be released so I can port over from AT&T. Now AT&T has come out with the Tilt! I haven't even got the 6800 and it's already outdated! ๐Ÿ™„

LGรƒยขรขโ€šยฌโ„ขs Voyager tops new handsets for holiday shopping season

Verizon Wireless Verizon Wireless announces the LG Voyager. An iPhone killer?


Updated: 7:53 a.m. ET Oct 3, 2007
NEW YORK - Verizon Wireless unveiled three new cell phones on Wednesday for the holiday season, including a high-end handset named Voyager that will compete with Apple's iPhone.

The Voyager, made by LG Electronics, trumps the iPhone by offering faster wireless Web access. But in a nod to the Apple device, which is only available to AT&T subscribers, it has a large touch screen and full Web browser.

Verizon Wireless hopes the new phone will attrac...

Contacts on Voyager

Does anyone know if the Contacts listing will be just the EnV? I don't like how with the EnV, there is not any dedicated areas for work and home addresses. I would hope they would change it for this phone. thanks

Price of voyager, venus, etc...

Any guesses? Co workers and I have speculated that the voyager will probably be about 249.99 on a two year. Well worth that much in my opinion.

Stepchild Phones...

With all the hype of the "Next" phones let's not forget about the poor defenseless phones for tomorrow (10/05/07). The Gleam and Rizr.

Ok I'll admit the Gleam looks like something from a bad rap video. It should've been dubbed the 'Bling', but it does have living wallpaper to draw your attention away from the fact it's still the VZ UI underneath it all.

And why oh why is it that Motorola can't get into the UI game here? Only the base VZ Classic and no option to switch. Another defenseless phone falls victim to this senseless crime.

Specific Release Dates for the VZW 'NEXT' Phones!

Many thanks to Kellin, over at HoFo:


Well I looked through a few pages on this thread and didn't see this posted anywhere. They've confirmed release dates for the phones on InfoManager today.

The first date is for pre-ordering and the second date is when it will be available to purchase online. Not sure what kind of system will be set-up for pre-ordering I'm assuming through the website right now, but there's not a whole lot that was given. Also, it was stated specifically that these phones won't be available for B2B.

Samsung Juke - 10/09 ; 10/19
LG Venus - 10/19 ; 11/4
BB Pearl - 10/26 ; 11/8
LG Voyager - 11/08 ; 11/18

And yes those are for this year too. ๐Ÿ™‚

Anyone know the resolution of the screen? I was going to look for some images to replace the wallpaper in the phone.
