Today LG Electronics and Verizon Wireless announced the availability of the new LG VX8700 mobile phone. The VX8700 is the latest in a long line-up of hot new phones from LG and Verizon. This model was designed with the fashion conscious in mind, sporting a shiny clamshell design made of the latest materials. It has a large color screen, a beautiful 2.0 megapixel camera (that can also take videos), and features quick and easy access to VCAST musis and video.

The LG VX8700 will be available for purchase starting April 6, when it will become available on the Verizon Wireless online store. Shortly thereafter, the phone will be available in most of Verizon's retail stores. The phone will be available for $179.99 (includes a $50 rebate), and a two-year contract.
