Verizon announces purple Gleam and wider FlipShot availability, too

Remember how
only Best Buy had the red Samsung FlipShot for a while? Verizon's finally pulling the rug out from under that whole deal and bringing both the red and black FlipShots under one roof. The pivoting wonder with the 3 megapixel autofocus cam is available in either shade you like from Verizon's stores and site now for $149.99 after rebate. Speaking of colors and Samsung, that purple Gleam we mentioned a few days back is all official now, coming in at $50 less than the FlipShot; it's also available now. Enjoy!

I like the flipshot. A little chunk, but a solid cameraphone if you're hooked on VZW (otherwise get an SE k790a/850 or Nokia N95) ... Hands-on video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZtMveF-EJo

The retail price of the FlipShot is down from $470 to $320 according to the Verizon website under my account info if I were to upgrade my phone at "full retail price". Although trying to upgrade at Best Buy it will probably be higher price but if you mention that the price has dropped at your local Verizon store (hopefully you have one close) they
ll likely price match.
