Posted by Janak Parekh in "HARDWARE" @ 02:00 PM
"Verizon Wireless, the first wireless company to deliver wireless broadband service from coast to coast, and UTStarcom Personal Communications, a division of UTStarcom, Inc., announced today at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, the availability of the XV6700 -- the first device for Verizon Wireless from UTStarcom that utilizes the Microsoft Windows Mobile(TM) 5.0 platform. Recently proclaimed an "Editor's Choice for 2005" by Laptop magazine, the XV6700 runs on Verizon Wireless' EV-DO (Evolution-Data Optimized) wireless broadband network."
At last! I posted on the impending release a few weeks ago, but here's the kicker -- the price isn't half-bad: $299 after $100 rebate with 2-year agreement (the PR doesn't say exactly what the price is for 1-year or no-contract). It's available now for enterprise customers, and will be generally available on January 19.
