Water resistant???
It says water resistant, but how much water resistant will it be. Living in the Pacific Northwest this could be a GREAT feature. I get so sick of explaining that water damage is not covered by the manufactures warranty.
I don't remember the specifics, but the Asian version can be SUBMERGED.
It was something like to like 1 meter for a half hour, but its safe to say it would survive the worst rainstorm we have (I'm in Portland).

Taken from the English link above:

When does this phone come out?
I need to upgrade from my LG 6100. I like this phone and the RAZR. Are there any other good phones coming out? Whats the best VZW out now?
I need an awesome speakerphone, ok camera, small and light-weight.

I dont like this.. becuase....
casio's are not very good in my view, but more importantly is that it has 1xrtt. why dont they just put ev-do on it and slowly get rid of 1xrtt?
ehh, it's been good in Japan, maybe it will be here. EVDO isn't set up to make voice calls, and since vzw is wanting to use EV for data only I don't think they will.. who knows tho. Kinda a funky lookin phone, but will be good for people who spends lo...

Technically, I didn't say the U.S. version isn't EV-DO, just that the Japanese one is 1xRTT.
There are hints in the FCC docs that the U.S. version will have EV-DO, but the hints are in places that are historically unreliable, so I'm not comfortable...

My mistake. The U.S. version definitely does have EV-DO.

that fits in with verizons line up 🤣
Why, Gunny? Because it's unique and quirky, and doesn't come across as another Samsung silver flip clone? I like it.
looks great for the hard on phone people
I'm excited to get this thing to sell to customers. When I have the nextel people switch to VZW they always want something durable. Well nothing on Verizon compares to the toughness of a nextel phone... So this will be a great selling point, esp a phone you can get soaked and not worry about breaking it.
Looks pretty sweet too. Screw the compass though, they just need the GPS like the mot 325.

When?
Anyone have any idea/guess when this might hit Verizon's shelves based on other new phones? Are we talking days, weeks, months?
Not days or weeks... 😉

thought and question
I think this might be of interest to many customers because it has a different look. Even though it is still a clamshell - I think it might stand out from some of the others.
My question is - why does one picture show an antenna on the phone and the other does not? I wonder which one it will actually be?

I belive that outer bar is an accessory that allows you to clip/attach the phone to something. You can see the screw on the side where you can take it off of the phone.

The left (red) one is actually the Japanese version. The FCC docs didn't have a good photo of the front - only one good enough to confirm this is the same design.
The right one is an actual photo of the FCC-approved U.S. version, so as you can see ...

Obviously it will be different when it gets here and is put through the Verizon de-contenting process.
