how does lack of a qwerty keyboard translate to verizon crippling phones? i don't see the connection seeing how that is a HARDWARE feature and verizon modifies the SOFTWARE, LG and Samsung handle the hardware end of things...and as the other poster says, stop trolling and being a little bitch, the same old complaints are just that, same & old. so shut the F**k up!

Crippling WiFi? Are you serious? Who cares about WiFi when VZW has EV-DO on most of the network? As for the keyboard ... it's a standard clamshell. That's up to LG...NOT VZW.

The VX8560 (a.k.a. Chocolate 3) just released July 13th. It comes in Ice Blue and Black, is $129.99, and has a wireless FM transmitter for music playback through your car's stereo speakers. I am thinking of upgrading to it, so I went and talked to a guy at my local VZW store on Tuesday. He said that "they tried to keep the original design of the Chocolate 2 for people who liked it." It had Adobe 3D flash support, and is now a flip-up phone. It is cool beyond cool! :)

On the other half (I am the same guy who just posted at 10:26 AM) the u440 was supposed to originally be the u430 (see phonearena's upcoming Verizon phones page). I am confused, who's right, who's not? What features will come on the u430/u440? Music player, prehaps? Someone tell me, plz. I want to upgrade, but only get phones with music players!
