Alltel added to its line the LG Rhythm, a music-centric slider. This is the US-variant of the KM710, and features the same form-factor, with 2” main display and a PMP-like navigation cluster with small touch display in the middle, showing what its function in the current menu is. As the original, the Rhythm features equalizers that are said to be tuned by Mark Levinson, the person behind the popular high-end audio brand. As it has a 3.5mm headset jack, standard wired headphones can be connected without the need of an adapter. If you like to listen to music without wires, stereo Bluetooth and FM transmitter (up to 10 feet) are present. Other features include FM radio, 1.3MP camera, EVDO and microSD slot. The Rhythm costs $120 after a $50 mail-in rebate and a two-year contract.

looks like a repackaged Venus

So obviously you all are lame because you don't realize that Alltel has been copying Sprint's whole line up since say......the dawn of time. This is bascally their version of the Highnote that sprint is about to unleash on all of you bitches. I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a Rant wanna be just like they came out with the nock off Rumor,the "Scoop".

sort of... Except that the Venus has a miniature touch screen to replace the Dpad and soft keys, where this has a spin wheel, and touch capacitance light up buttons on the front face. So really you could say it looks [NOTHING] like a Venus. There is however another LG slider on VZW that it resembles (see my post further down). Nice try though.

Why d othey keep ading new phones when VZW now owns them, and most Altell users will be switched over by Dec? Doesn't make sense.

23. primewax (unregistered) posted on 18 Oct 2008, 14:46 0 0

VZW does NOT own them, not yet. The acquisition has not yet been approved. It's pretty much a given though. I wonder what will happen to these Alltel devices if they have to switch. Will VZW approve them on their new Open Network, or possibly unlock the ESNs for use in thier systems? Who knows, but it'll be interesting to see.

So, Alltel is still releasing phones...even though Verizon Wireless is going to buy them out. Interesting.

technically vzw did not buy alltel yet, they are still in the process of sorting out some of the legal stuff before the actual purchase is complete. so they are still considered vz's competitor that is until the transaction is complete.
