Verizon + Versa = Versatility

Verizon Wireless and LG Electronics announced today (Feb. 26) that the LG Versa will be available beginning March 1. With its chrome border on a bar design, animated 3-inch touch screen interface with tactile feedback and an attachable QWERTY keypad, the LG Versa is said to be a versatile phone. 

Users can personalize their LG Versa phones based on their messaging needs -- either attach the QWERTY keypad to their phones or leave the keypad at home. The LG Versa's home screen is transformed into an animated 3D interface and users can customize three different home screens with their favorite shortcuts.  

The built-in accelerometer rotates the screen automatically from portrait to landscape, and customers can use rotation movements to steer games. The HTML Web browser includes Flash and RSS feed support. Users can keep up to three windows open and switch from one window to the other to view pages. 

Additionally, the phone comes packed with Verizon Wireless' V CAST Music with Rhapsody and V CAST Video services. V CAST Music with Rhapsody allows users to choose from more than 5 million songs over-the-air, download the master copy of their songs to their PCs free of digital rights management (DRM) software.  

They can sync their favorite tracks, albums and playlists from their PCs to their LG Versa phones using the included USB cable. V CAST Video allows them to download or stream video related to news, sports, entertainment, etc. 

The LG Versa supports productivity tools -- such as Visual Voice Mail so buyers can prioritize their messages -- while Verizon Wireless' VZ NavigatorSM service transforms the phone into a navigation device. It’s compatible with Mobile Broadband Connect to allow buyers to use their phones as a modem by linking their laptops to their phones to establish a broadband connection anywhere within Verizon Wireless' Mobile Broadband rate and coverage area. 

The LG Versa will be available online at www.verizonwireless.com and in Verizon Wireless Communications Stores beginning March 1 for $199.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement.
