"We are excited about these devices," said Mike Lanman vice president and chief marketing officer for Verizon Wireless. "Our fourth quarter device portfolio includes best-in-class multimedia wireless phones that offer customers the latest in innovative technology and an array of features. Whether customers are seeking a cool, hip, fashion-forward music phone, a device that will help them stay connected to the office, or an entertainment-rich device that can also function in a business setting, we will have it - on the nation's most reliable wireless network."

The Verizon Wireless holiday collection includes:

The Samsung Juke

Targeting customers who never leave home without their wireless phones or their music players, the pint-sized multi-functional Juke has a unique swivel design which enables it to literally flick open 180 degrees to reveal the keypad. The 2 GB of internal storage complements the phone's music player, which supports MP3, WMA and unprotected AAC files. Other features include a VGA camera with Nightshot, Bluetooth stereo support for listening to music and the ability to access Verizon Wireless' popular services such as VZ Navigator and Chaperone. The Juke is exclusive to Verizon Wireless and will be available in blue, red and teal at launch.

The Venus will debut in both black and pink. It has two dual front screens, the lower of which also has touch input with vibration feedback, which make accessing the phone's features a breeze. This innovative, music-centric slim, stylish slider also offers a microSD memory port that accommodates up to 8 GB of expandable memory. With the Venus, customers can access to Get It Now downloadable applications and VCAST Video and Music. The LG Venus also features a music player that supports MP3, WMA and unprotected AAC files and a 2.0-megapixel camera and camcorder.

For the customer who needs to balance work and play, the world's first high-speed BlackBerry Pearl from Verizon Wireless gives customers wireless broadband (EV-DO) connectivity to the office while enabling them to stay connected with family, friends and colleagues. Tinted silver, a color exclusive to Verizon Wireless, the BlackBerry Pearl 8130 offers voice and data in a style that goes from day to evening in one slim package. With its built-in GPS capability and access to VZ Navigator service, the BlackBerry Pearl 8130 can take customers wherever they want to go with mapping, audible turn-by-turn navigation, and access to information on more than 14 million points of interest.

Exclusive to Verizon Wireless, the LG Voyager sports a large external touch-screen and opens laterally to reveal a full QWERTY keypad, giving customers a choice on how they access the phone's features. The innovative LG Voyager comes packed with services including an HTML browser, full VCAST-capabilities - including VCAST Mobile TV, VCAST Music, with the ability to play MP3, WMA and unprotected AAC files, and VCAST Video. These capabilities, coupled with high-speed wireless broadband access, make downloading music on-the-go quick and easy. With all these features, for customers who purchase the LG Voyager who want to download music, take pictures and do so much more than talk with this stylish device, there is a removable microSD memory slot that holds up to 8 GB of memory.
