Dare : First Live Photos of LG Dare for VerizonVerizon Wireless customers have been treated to a bevy of QWERTY-fied messaging phones so far this year, but some of y'all are still feeling some touchscreen-envy in the face of the iPhones, Vus, and Instincts of the world. Fear not, here comes Dare.
LG's hotly anticipated full-touchscreen gem for VZW has been caught in the wild. Looks and specs-wise Dare seems to be something of a cross between Vu and Viewty, with a 3.5mm headphone jack and EVDO Rev A thrown in for good measure. Check out HowardForums for more more more on Dare, which should be available for purchase sometime next month. Specs (From HoFo):
