Verizon's new rebate form hit the web this week and shows several new phones that should be released by June 15th, which is the rebate's expiration date. While we were at CTIA last week, the LG enV2, Blackberry Curve, and HTC XV6900 were all announced by Verizon to be avaliable within the month of April and to carry a price (after a $50 rebate) of $129, $269, and $349 respectively. The XV6900 is rumored to be released on April 16th, with the enV2 and Curve on the 30th. More interesting however, is the listing of the LG Decoy (which we believe to be the VX8610), Motorola W755, Nokia 6205, and Samsung Glyde (U940).
Since those have not been officially announced by Verizon, we are uncertain as to their prices, yet all do show a $50 rebate as well. Unfortunately, the LG Dare (VX9700) and VX8560 were not listed on the form, which most likely means they will not be released until this summer. We should also point out that even though an unreleased phone is listed on a rebate form, it does not guarantee that it will come out during that time. This was true with the Glyde first showing up on the form dated 2/19/08-3/29/08.
