The Storm is not the only hot thing happening at Verizon. The largest U.S. carrier, counting Alltel subscribers too, has big plans for the following period. During 11/16/08 through 1/31/09 we’re going to see lots of Verizon handsets at discount prices.

  • LG VX8360 (clamshell with EV-DO, 1.3MP camera, stereo Bluetooth, microSD)
  • LG XV9600 (basically a Dare with a detachable QWERTY keyboard and a game-pad)
  • Nokia 2605 Mirage (small clamshell with 1xRTT, VGA Camera, and Bluetooth)
  • Nokia 7205 Intrigue (small clamshell with 1x/EV-DO, 2MP Camera, Bluetooth)
  • Samsung Renown (clamshell with CDMA and Quad-band GSM, similar to the Gleam)
  • Samsung Saga i770
  • Samsung Omnia
  • HTC Touch Pro/XV6850
  • USB760 (super small USB EV-DO Rev A “micro” Modem)
  • Compass 597 (USB modem with aGPS)
  • CDM8950/CDM8975 (unknown?)

Depending on what handset you choose you will save from $50 to $70 but you will probably have to sign a new contract. What do you think? Would you get any of these handsets or will you go for the Storm instead?
