Verizon launches Motorola Rival
The Motorola Rival is yet another messaging phone for Verizon Wireless.
Verizon just keeps releasing more messaging phones, and this time it's the Motorola Rival. It has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard plus a touch-sensitive dial pad on the front, which is similar in style to the LG Neon.
The Rival has plenty of messaging features, like one-touch access to text messages, a 2.0-megapixel camera, a 3.5mm headset jack, up to 8GB of removable memory via the microSD card slot, EV-DO with support for broadband services like V Cast Music with Rhapsody, GPS and VZ Navigator support, and more. The Motorola Rival will be available Wednesday for $99.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and a two-year agreement.
