Verizon Wireless Touch Pro2 Going Live 9/11
With an unboxing of the Sprint Touch Pro2 just a day ago by our own Daniel Webster, it stands to reason that the other major US CDMA/EVDO network would want in on some of the HTC sliding and tilting action. That said, Verizon Wireless recently announced its own version of the Touch Pro2 with the lowest price tag we've seen at $199 on a two-year agreement after rebates.
The Verizon Wireless launch means that 3 of the four major carriers now have a Touch Pro2, with T-Mobile's GSM iteration first out of the gate, followed by Sprint and now Verizon. Missing in action is AT&T's Tilt2 branded device, which is another variant of the unlocked Touch Pro2. The device should be available today, Friday, but as of the time of writing this post the device isn't yet on the Verizon Wireless website yet. With three Touch Pro2s now gracing consumer availability in the states, perhaps we'll have to re-evaluate and see if the HTC unlocked version is the best looking device of all the carrier variants out there in the US. Hit the break to read the press release: BASKING RIDGE, NJ, and BELLEVUE, Wash. — Verizon Wireless and HTC Corporation introduce the HTC Touch Pro2™, a global-capable smartphone designed for the busiest professionals and world travelers. The HTC Touch Pro2 features an extra-large 3.6-inch touch screen that tilts to an optimal viewing angle, an ergonomic slide-out QWERTY keyboard, and an advanced speakerphone with asymmetric speakers and advanced noise suppression to deliver customers a robust productivity experience. Created with the intuitive TouchFLO 3D user interface, data on the HTC Touch Pro2 can be easily accessed with just the touch of a finger. Available color: Black Key specifications and features: -High-speed connectivity over Verizon Wireless’ Mobile Broadband network (1x/EV-DO Revision A 800/1900 MHz) -Global connectivity to allow customers to access e-mail and data in more than 180 destinations and to use the phone for voice calling in more than 220 destinations (GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz WCDMA/HSPA 2100 MHz) -Wi-Fi capabilities (802.11 b/g) -3.6 inch WVGA resolution (480 x 800) tilting touch screen -Advanced speakerphone with noise-cancelling technology -3.2 megapixel auto-focus camera with video capture -Touch-sensitive zoom bar -Seamless connectivity with Microsoft® Exchange, Outlook and Office applications with Windows Mobile® 6.1 Professional -Bluetooth® 2.1 with EDR and A2DP stereo -Processor: Qualcomm MSM 7600A, 528 MHz -Memory: 512 MB ROM, 288 MB RAM -Dimensions: 4.57” x 2.33” x .68” (length x width x height) -Weight: 6.3 ounces (with standard battery) -Extended 1500 mAh battery for longer operation times -Up to 5.3 hours of talk time (CDMA) or up to 13.5 days of standby time (CDMA) Lifestyle features: -Linked contact view delivers e-mail, text message, call history, and even Flickr images and Facebook® updates to a single location -Push Internet technology ensures that favorite Web sites are always ready for viewing at a moment’s notice -3.5 mm audio jack and stereo Bluetooth support to enjoy multimedia content through a variety of audio equipment -Optional expandable microSD™ memory with up to 16 GB to store music, video, images, applications and other content -Built-in GPS for VZ Navigator(SM), VZ Navigator(SM) Global and other location-based services and applications Price and availability: The HTC Touch Pro2 will be available for $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement on a voice plan with an e-mail feature or e-mail plan.

i dont see them dropping it any sooner than beginning of next month..... good for verizon people i would say since the price is where it should be right around as well as that they didnt cripple the device this time or make it a funky ass color. |

Re: Verizon Wireless Touch Pro2 Going Live 9/11
thats after the mail in rebate.... you got to wait for that and with sprint many dont get them back and dont get word from them on it either..... you have to be careful with your mail in rebates.
