According to the manager of a SF area store today, the dual-system BB is in testing with Verizon for a last week of Feb / first week of March availability. Apparently it won't be stocked in stores, you'll order it through a store and have it mailed to you. On arrival, you call VZW to activate the GSM SIM card. No news on price or GSM usage plans.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
