Sprint adds fourth color to the Rumor palate

The Rumor originally launched in black and white, meanwhile, green was added in time for St. Patrick's day. Now that summer is just around the corner, LG is bringing a blue Rumor to Sprint. Other than the face-lift, the blue version remains identical to the previous three, featuring a 1.3-megapixel camera, microSD expansion and of course, the side-sliding QWERTY keyboard. The blue Rumor is currently available exclusively at Best Buy, though the press release makes no mention of exclusivity so like the pink Muziq it may show up in all channels soon.

The Pink Muziq was a Best Buy exclusive, but then it made its way to mainstream channels...maybe this will too

I really want this phone. I am getting the LG Rumor sometime in August of 2008. I was wondering if the blue and silver rumor (this one) will sell just as cheap as the white, green, and black rumor in the Sprint stores and Sprint.com. Thanks for all of your help!

I just got the blue Rumor on Saturday 7/26/08 at our local Sprint store. The pictures do not do it justice. The blue is very cool. It is pretty close to the colro blue on the keyboard of the black Rumor. I had it in green, but exchanged it for the Blue. I absolutely love this phone. Also in response to the person who said they do not get notified if they have an IM. My phone lets me know that I have a message if someone sends me an IM. It notifies me the same way it does when I have a tesxt message.
