Currently available with Alltel Wireless, Noah got his hands on the LG Glimmer at CTIA last week.  The first touchscreen to be a part of the Alltel line-up, the Glimmer is a solid slider device with haptic feedback, media player, micro USB port, and an easy to read menu system from LG that helps you navigate thru all that Alltel has to offer.
