    If you say Garmin-Asus as one word, Garminasus, it sounds like a disease.


    I'm sorry, Ginny, he had advanced progressive garminasus. By the time he showed up in our ER, outside of providing turn-by-turn directions and saving his rollover minutes for next of kin, there was little we could do.

    Hooray,.. yet ANOTHER big flat candybar phone.

    iPhone wasn't first but it sure seems to suggest that this isn't ending anytime soon.


    Be original-er, put a clam cover on it to protect the face or something.

    @CoHPhasor: The phone here is the same one they announced a year ago. We haven't seen the upcoming ones, though, so you'll have to keep checking back to Giz for those.

    @laxman15: Not sure what you guys are specifically debating (and I have changed the top image a few times, so the comments may be referring to something no longer visible) but this is real. Enjoy.

    Verizon won't allow non-smart phones that require non-Verizon themes menus and options. And Verizon smart-phones are limited to RIM network features and require the RIM network data plan. They really have zero-tolerance for customizability unless you pay a premium, but then you're limited to whatever Blackberries allow in their menus.


    I have no problem with Verizon network for my uses, but I do find not being able to customize my phone's menu system a bit of a bummer. Also, unlocked phones on Verizon have extremely minited functionality and are prone to the network "excluding" them, requiring you to re-establish network connection often.


    So, Verizon is unlikely to support any phone that has infinite customization unless they charge a fortune for data.

    I'm gonna have to express my glee about an Android SE. I wouldn't mind an Xperia with Android, which would likely get some of Sony's good skinning treatment.

    Where does Verizon fit in all this? No iPhone, no Android? Those pussies need to choose a side.

    @Rabid Penguin: Then again, sitting on the sideline until there is a victor is not such a bad idea, either.
