Verizon flips out over LG VX8600 Chocolate clamshell

Not a fan of the sliding form factor? Maybe that round wheel on the front is turning you off? Hang in tight because Verizon is about to get their hands on the flipping Chocolate variant, the LG VX8600. Pricing has even been announced for this music-centric clamshell and it goes as thus: If you must eschew a contract altogether, it’ll run you $250, compared to the $230 or $180 it would cost you if you put your John Hancock on a one- or two-year contract, respectively. The expectation is that the VX8600 will hit up those lovely kiosks on November 15th.
