Well it appears Verizon is finally getting a few new phones or rather several older models that have been redesigned and rereleased. The more anticipated of these is probably the Samsung Omni 2 but we will also see a new Samsun Rogue which is actually an updated Glyde.

Samsung Rogue	Samsung Omni 2	LG Chocolate VX8575

Samsung Omni 2 is a Windows Mobile 6.1 with Samsung’s TouchWiz 2.0 interface. The phone should be upgradeable to Windows Mobile 6.5 whenever Microsoft releases that repeatedly delayed upgrade. Word is it will include both Wifi, Bluetooth, Geo Tagging and a 3.5mm headphone jack. As a WinMo phone it will obviously sync with those users on Microsoft Corporate email, Exchange Server. The Rogue will sport full touchscreen, QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth, MP3 Player, GPS, and a 3MP camera with Geo Tagging. The LG Chocolate will also have Bluetooth, MP3 players, GPS and likely Geo Tagging. All phones will likely be based on EVDO Rev. A and not the older Rev. 0 but that’s something you should confirm prior to purchase.

These phones should all be available by the end of the month, probably around the 23rd.
