  • Motorola Z6tv gets detailed and priced by Verizon

    Filed under: Handsets , Motorola , Verizon Wireless , EV-DO , CDMA After having been through the indignity of an outing by the FCC , a roadmap slip , and subsequent roadmap correction , the Motorola Z6tv finally looks good to go. Verizon has let it slip that the handset will land for $279 on one-year agreement and $229 with two-year -- both feature $50 mail in rebates, to boot. So, there ya have it, look for this handset to be in your local bricks and mortar in the coming weeks, if not sooner. Oh, and hit the read link to pop on over to the Verizon site where all the nitty gritty details are posted for your geeky pleasure.

  • Sprint BlackBerry Pearl to support Sprint TV?

    Filed under: Handsets , Multimedia , RIM , Sprint , EV-DO , CDMA It appears that Sprint has let the bag again and allowing some clever readers to comb through the same spec sheet . It looks like Sprint will launch the BlackBerry 8130 supporting both their Mobile TV and Music Store services. Nothing sounds more enticing than streaming audio and video via EV-DO on our BlackBerry . Now only if Sprint can get their mobile TV offerings in line with VCast TV or maybe Verizon will follow suit and enable another Smartphone for their music service.

  • LG VX9400 unboxed

    Filed under: Handsets , Multimedia , LG , Verizon Wireless , 1xRTT , EV-DO , CDMA Well, looky here -- we've come a long way since CES when we scored those up close and personal shots with LG's VX9400 , now haven't we? Luckily for us, our friendly parcel carrier dropped off one of these newly released beauties and we wanted to share the (joyful) unboxing experience with y'all. Just to give a quick refresher of the features, here they are: dual band 1X / EV-DO radio, VCAST TV support, Bluetooth with A2DP, expandable memory via microSD, and a 1.3 megapixel shooter. Finally, lets not forget about the 262,000 color, 320 x 240 swiveling display (which, by the by, is quite purty when opened). Check out the gallery for more pics and be sure to keep a look out for our mobile TV shootout!

  • Verizon rolls out LG VX9400, second VCAST TV phone

    Filed under: Handsets , Multimedia , LG , Verizon Wireless , 1xRTT , EV-DO , CDMA Sure, Samsung's u620 was the first on the scene when Verizon's MediaFLO -based VCAST TV service launched earlier this month, but the fashionably late VX9400 from LG seems to be the real prize. At least that's the impression we got when we had the opportunity to mess around with both side by side at CES in January, and starting today, Verizon customers can start buying and critiquing VX9400s of their very own (in VCAST TV markets, anyway). Your hard-earned $200 -- plus the standard issue two-year agreement, of course -- will net you the Chocolate-esqe handset with a swivel screen, 1.3 megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, microSD expansion, and naturally, EV-DO data. We wouldn't mind a few more teevee channels, but beggars can't be choosers when it comes to the mobile TV landscape here in the US -- and besides, it's a pretty nifty lookin' handset anyway, right?
