No one can accuse Verizon of rushing handsets out into the marketplace, but they've just announced the latest addition to their meager line-up of cameraphones, LG's VX7000. It's still not going to take amazing photos, but the VX7000 does have a VGA-quality camera (with a rotating lens and LED flash) that's higher resolution than the one found in Verizon's first cameraphone, LG's VX6000. The VX7000 can also record video clips up to 15 seconds in length and will retail for $249.99.
Actually, the VX-6000 was also VGA, so this does not bring better resolution. The Kyocera Koi and Motorola V710 are the new megapixel camera phones coming to Verizon. The only new thing going for the VX-7000 is the video recording, which is a first for Verizon.
Verizon's got them. They already have non-working demo models in the store and they are in the computer if you want to order one. It's bigger than the V›Š«?.
Supposedly, the Motorola V710 is on the way in July.
Oh yea, you can save $70 by buying it online.

does this have a real external screen or more of the OLED like the VX6000? not that it matters, i'm waiting for a V710 anyway!
I had the LG vx-6000 for a while its a great phone although the 7000 and the 6000 are both VGA cameras you can defiantly tell the difference in the picture. The 7000 comes with some much more than the VX-6000 also flash amoungest many many other things My two uncles have the VX-6100 and they all said they liked the design and my features better then the ones on there VX-6100 I have done all my research and I know that the 7000 is worth a little more money if you want to see for yourself go to phonescoop.com and to phone then to compare phones you'll see the big difference in quailty and CDMA and make your own ringers.
