Saw that yesterday myself.  Alltel probably won't support it though.

Verizon will be the carrier. But I'm sure others will try to snag it up.

Verizon and Alltel merged so I'm hoping Alltel will get it too.

Hmmmmmm, the bill that came in the mail the other day told me it was final.  Liars, I would stop using them if anything else here picked up worth 2 cents.

well like i said its 90% sure it will go thru, they just need ninal approval from the FCC which they mostl ikely will get, the chairman Kevin Martin has already asked that the rest of the commissioners approve it.
The only snag that could possibly hold it up or even squash it is getting the banks to loan verizon wireless the capital to for the 28 Billion due to 22 Billion being debt.
a few months ago...even a few weeks ago it wouldn't be a question but the way the economy is and the credit crunch nothing is guaranteed

Would it be to much trouble to get rid of the screwed up double keys if you went to a touch screen?????

I mean come on lets get with the new age of touch screens now. Heck even my wife's crack berry for work has individual keys for all the letters.

The ""screwed up keys"" can be an option on this phone.

When you turn the phone so that it is horizontal, the keys are not doubled.
