Verizon's Samsung Saga shows its face, as anticipated
Nothing new or unexpected here: just like we said a few days ago, the Samsung Saga, one of the bluest handsets in recent memory, is now available online at Verizon. Also filed under "things we already knew," the globetrotting GSM and CDMA-enabled smartphone with EV-DO is selling for $199.99 (with a 2-year contract and one of those mail-in rebates we all know and love), though apparently you won't be able to walk into a Verizon store and pick one up in person until December 1st. Hit the read link for more granular details should you really, really want them.

You won't be able to pick one up in store on Dec 1st, either. It'll be warehouse shipping only. No in-store date has been announced.

How about the real specs? Is it worth ditching my i760 for the i770 (saga)?

Wow, VZW actually beating someone else to the punch with a Windows Mobile Pro device. Of course it has to be the ugliest WM device I've seen in a while...

Maybe the picture is large for a reason. This thing is a beast. It is bigger than the iPhone in all dimensions. And 256/128. I don't see why anyone would buy this when they can pay the same and get the Storm.

Why does it list Wi-fi on the link (Samsung site) but not mention anything about it on verizons page? I'm confused as to whether or not it will have it, and also if you'd have to pay data charges additional to the plan since it's a "smart phone"
