The phone will be released in the US on May 26, and will be available exclusively through Verizon. It’ll be priced at $US199, with an additional $US30 a month on top of that for your monthly charge (remember, it’s a phone!).
Those wondering which game they’ll buy first, don’t sweat it: the phone comes with six titles pre-installed, including the original PS1 version of Crash Bandicoot, along with more up-to-date editions (remember, it’s also an Android phone!) of Madden 11, The Sims 3, Star Battalion, Bruce Lee Dragon Warrior and Asphalt 6: Adrenaline.
