Verizon's LG VX8600 Chocolate flip in the wild {Engadget Mobile}

Aug 22nd 2006 6:31PM It's a shame Verizon screws up the design factor every time. They would have us wear nice clothes that fit badly. Like this US version of the Chocoflip, which takes away the easily readable checkered keypad, the extra dedicated buttons below the D-pad, but includes gawdy send/end keys from the smartphone button drawer. But it shouldn't be surprising that the corporate behemoth Verizon leans toward dull and lifeless.
