As expected, the LG Decoy launched on Verizon today, for the also-expected price of $179 (on a two-year contract and after a $50 mail-in rebate). That price tag includes the Decoy's claim to fame: a snap-on Bluetooth headset, as well as some all around decent if unremarkable specs, including a 2 megapixel camera, a 2.2-inch "mirror-like" 240 x 320 display, a micro SD card slot, V CAST music and video support and, of course, built-in Bluetooth. In case you missed it, you can get a better look at the phone courtesy of an always helpful unboxing that turned up over the weekend.

C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!
game breaker 3!!!!!!
What does a mirror-like screen entail? Extreme gloss?
Severe retinal damage if used in direct or indirect sunlight...
That giant-ass HTC phone NEEDS one of these.
wow this is a killer phone! i want one!
Isn't this a bad idea for the same reasons it's a bad idea in media players? Personal choice in headset/headphones is critical - maybe you want noise cancellation or stereo?; some already own headsets; what if you lose/break the build-in one; it make the phone fatter for everyone
Eh
Its way over priced.
And its not sleek.
It wont appeal outside the "Im to old to realize I could buy a separate headset thats more comfortable for half the price" crowd.
Anyword on the "Dare" Specs/release yet? That's the phone I want next month.
Love the name. LG, you shouldn't have!
It makes me thing this is some sort of fake phone you hope thieves will steal instead of your real one. Why does it cost so much?
Actually, it would be cool to store your blue tooth headset directly on your phone so you (a) don't lose it as easily and (b) don't have to wear it all the time, like when you are in a bar, and look like a giant tard.
