Verizon releases the XV6900 Smartphone for sale online

Starting today, the HTC XV6900 will be avaliable through the Verizon Wireless website and direct business channels for $249 after rebate, but store sales will being on April 30th. The XV6900 is almost identical to the HTC Touch that we reviewed last December. It is a Windows Mobile 6 Professional device featuring a large 2.8" QVGA TouchFLO display with LED backlight, 2MP Camera, Bluetooth 2.0, and is microSDHC capable up to 8GB.

The software includes mobile versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe Reader LE, Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player 10, and supports Office Outlook Mobile and Microsoft Exchange with Direct Push. Unfortunately, the XV6900 loses the built-in WiFi that is offered in its GSM counterpart. We hope it doesn't take too long for Verizon to allow this device to be used with their lower cost $29 data plan that started this week.
