The long overdue Samsung Glyde U940 has finally shown up in Verizon's InfoManager system. Unfortunately, no release date or price is listed along with it. All that is shown, are the official specs of the device, press photos, and an on-line user guide. However, rumor has it that 2-year pricing will be $299 and will be released in May.
