From the first pic, it looks like the OS of the LG Dare. I'm surprised, knowing Verizon though I can imagine there would be more of a marketing blitz.

Has anyone played with the Dare and noticed any weird expansion slots?]]>Nov 4th 2008 11:40AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 4th 2008 12:36PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 5th 2008 2:12PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 4th 2008 11:34AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 4th 2008 11:57AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/
Now, think about big that is... lets take another step... didn't John Carmack just recently say that the Iphone is a far better gaming platform to develop games on (talking about the power of the hardware).

Now, to do games well, you need a good controller... it looks like they have that covered. If you are doing that, is it much of a stretch to add a keyboard? Or, for audiophiles, add speakers... The cellphone is getting all sorts of gadgets jammed into it right now, so we can keep everything in our pockets.

I am still waiting for the cell phone to be thin-client workstation, as well as a cell phone, utilizing remote desktop, bluethooth connectivity, docking stations, and tunneling protocols, over the internet. I don't think THAT day is too far off, and this is just one step.]]>Nov 4th 2008 12:39PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/
I knew this was going to happen. I get all set for the Storm and then rumors of something else that piques my intrest start showing up.

Well I think I'll wait and see what this is like then make a decision one way or another. You just have to bite the bullet at one point with phones.]]>Nov 4th 2008 1:34PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/
Anyway, a phone like this was shown as a prototype in some show, I'm sure Engadget covered it. I know Gizmodo did. A phone with a separate screen and keyboard? The concept phone has been shown already. Maybe LG picked it up? The concept phone did look sweet though. I believe it was black with red glowing lcds or buttons? That phone was sexy. Hopefully it will be the same phone.]]>Nov 4th 2008 3:29PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/
I'm sure that this will be similar but I'd expect physical connectors unlike the magnetic ones in that concept.]]>Nov 4th 2008 5:23PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 4th 2008 8:45PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 4th 2008 4:01PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/04/mystery-verizon-phone-features-3-inch-touchscreen-attachable-fu/Nov 5th 2008 3:00PM
