Word on the streets is that we could see that amazing smartphone stateside sometime soon. The rumor states that Verizon might be the carrier of the “Croix” that the Jesus-Phone gets nailed to, that was a bad pun, I’m going to hell for that one.
Furthermore, the phone is supposed to be getting fitted with the necessary CDMA and EV-DO chipsets instead of the HSPA and GSM that it has now. Everything else, including the 3MP cam, touch interface, and sliding keyboard would stay.
With Vodafone and Verizon getting all cute and snuggly together over in the corner, it could happen. I wouldn’t expect such a move until the hype from the Voyager goes down though.

You say it would come with the same 5mp camera as the phone in europe but by
the specs Vodafone published its only a 3mp camera!
Do you have more information of this?
thanks for catching that, i fixed it
following up on this article, i traded my brand new env2 in for the “glyde”, which i the env2 i was not too crazy about in the first place, i am very unhappy with the glyde do too its crappy user interface and touch screen, my chihuahua is smarter than it. i really only wanted it so i can use html browsing, its not even worth it at this point and the battery couldnt be any worse either, samsung still has some kinks to work out with this phone. touch screens have a lot to compete with since the iphone release. i would not recommend this phone at all. the call quality is also poor, i miss LG.
