Messaging-dedicated phones are the hit these days – AT&T has most of them (recently announced 6 new models equipped with QWERTY keyboards) but the other major carriers also have a bunch of them. What about smaller providers such as U.S. Cellular? Well, here is some news - the carrier now offers the LG Banter, which Alltel got a couple of weeks ago. It is a budget messaging phone with 4-row side-sliding QWERTY and numeric keypad and 2” QVGA display on the front. It is identical to the Rumor 2 that Sprint offers and although is not the best QWERTY phone out there is still a decent addition to the U.S. Cellular lineup. Price is $50 after a 2-year contract and $50 mail-in rebate.
