Verizon's Touch Diamond, Versa, Intrigue, and Pearl 8230 take a family photo

Aww, isn't that cute? Everyone got together for one last picture before graduation -- that magical time everyone goes their separate ways to retail shelves across the country where they'll be picked up by subscribers and adopted into loving families of their own. Here we've got four hotties that are due on Verizon in the next few months: the Touch Diamond and Versa, both of which we expect by mid-March, the Nokia 7205 Intrigue, which we've expected for over a frigging year now, and the BlackBerry Pearl 8230, which will launch when it damn well feels like it. Nothing particularly amazing about this shot, but we've got to say, the Intrigue looks absolutely stellar -- assuming it actually comes off this good in the flesh.

faceted back on the diamond? crippled? these questions need to be answered and fast.

Atleast they're showing touchflo on the Diamond in the promo pic, unlike the touch pro.

So hopefully it's not too crippled.

Hmmm.......Quite sure the Verizon Touch Diamond Will Be on the Short Bus compared to Sprints.

Same Way Verizons Touch Pro was Half Ass

Look forward to Verizon Givin Users a Touch Update a Year from now too......Tisk....Why even bother.

Actually, unlike Sprint's uglified version, it is confirmed the VZW version has the faceted back and MicroSD card expansion.

I think the image shows the order the phones will be released. The Diamond will pry be released first part of March and so on leading up the release of the Blackberry Pearl Flip in May about the time most blackberrys are released. just my thought.

The 7205 is looking quite cute in that picture. Wonder what's written on the battery cover...

I did confirm from a Verizon sales rep that these phones WILL be out mid-march and available at all their locations nationwide. The HTC is SOOOOO sweet. With Windows Mobile 6, built-in gyroscope, touch screen, leveler, and SO much more, it is great competition for the Blackberry and iPhone. The only thing I would have to say bad about it is it's weight. A little heavier than I'm used to, but still a great phone!

The LG Versa is going to be another VERY popular phone. Similar to the LG Dare, it has a touchscreen, slide out, and I'm told it will even have built-in XM satellite radio! No need to carry a separate XMP3 around.

The Nokia Intrigue I don't know much about other than it's very slim and lightweight.

I'm going to probably go with the HTC or Versa. I'm eligible for an upgrade and will wait until next month...somewhow.
