Verizon launches Motorola Adventure V750
Posted July 21st, 2008 by Mondo
Motorola Adventure V750 is finally official, available for purchase through the Verizon Wireless websiteThe handset uses EVDO Revision A-based cellular data to provide the same kind of instant talk as Sprint’s iDEN service (now also moving to QChat) but with the theoretically improved quality of the 3G network. The clamshell design is also ruggedized with US military-grade protection against dust, drops and other shocks, temperature, and water splashes. In spite of its semi-professional focus, the Adventure is still pitched at home users with a 2-megapixel camera, a full media player with external music controls and support for Verizon’s new Rhapsody subscription access, and support for other provider services such as V CAST Video and turn-by-turn mapping through VZ Navigator. A microSDHC card slot holds as much as 8GB or more of content.
Verizon pushes the cost of the phone relatively low with the new Motorola phone selling for $100 when paired with a two-year contract and a rebate; the company hasn’t set an in-store date for the new flip design.
