Pre-order period for Kin One and Kin Two to begin May 6th, shipping starts May 13th?

An internal Verizon email report should put a smile on the faces of the young kids that are Microsoft's target demographic for its Kin One and Kin Two handsets. According to this email, Big Red will start accepting pre-orders for the messaging duo starting on May 6th and just a week later, on May 13th, Kin One and Kin Two will be launched across all of Verizon's retail channels. The Kin One is the handset formerly known as the Turtle and looks to be a shell of a device with a slide out portrait QWERTY keyboard, a 5MP camera and a 2.6 inch display with resolution of 320 X 240 pixels. The Kin Two is a candybar form factor with a 3.4 inch capacitive touchscreen and resolution of 320 X 480 pixels. The camera is an 8MP shooter with 8GB of flash memory. We are still waiting on pricing for the handsets, which are aimed at the segment of the population that likes to be no more than a thumb-press away from staying connected.
