Are you kidding me? How is the lg vx9700 not included in this group? I love verizon but I do get tired of the way they drag their feet when they are releasing new phones... Time to piss and moan like an in impotent jerk and then bend over and take it up the tail pipe....

They didn't annouce the Glyde and that has been rumored loooooong before the 9700. I doubt the Glyde and 9700 will be launching at the same time. Besides CTIA starts tomorrow, Maybe LG or Samsung will announce these phones.

Well, they may not have officially announced the launch. But the Glyde is now being advertised by verizon. I was looking at the pretty pictures in my GF's US Weekly for April 7th and Verizon has an ad on page 32-33 showing a picture of the Glyde, clearly, in the lower right hand corner, touch screen glory in full effect. Guess that means it's on the horizon sooner rather than later. Hopefully the same will be true about the 9700. Damn I want that phone!

The only good phone there is the enV2...why don't they call the Blackberry and HTC phones the names they are called on other carriers. It is stupid. They better announce the VX9700 w/ a cool name soon, and the Samsung Glyde. GET IT TOGETHER VERIZON!

They call the Blackberry the same as other Carriers, VZW has a Curve and a Pearl. Same as GSM and CDMA Curve and Pearl. The Vogue/Touch/XV6900 or anything from HTC/UTS always has a different name. Titan/Mogul/XV6800/TYTN or SMT5800/Vox The 9700 is callled "LG Dare"

Thanks, I realized the Blackberries afterwards. But I mainly mean the Htc's, etc....The numbers are much harder to remember than names.

You guyz need to see the title of this news article. New phones but NOT the cool ones!

The fact that the Glyde is on the rebate from means absolutely nothing unfortunately. Phones show up on rebate forms all the time long before they have release dates set.

the reason they posted the Alias is because it's coming out in a different color with different color buttons as well

ummm okay. i HAVE the LG env2, and I love it! it's like the coolest phone ever. but it's weird looking. So if you get it, be prepared to be asked what the phone is. (most people think that it is a calculator. :p
