Okay, we're day a late, but we're not $50 dollars short since Richard avoided the World War Z 'Mega Ticket.' That much and only a small popcorn? No, thanks. Despite seeing the movie twice for regular price, however, Ben is still convinced that Richard's the guy who hates every movie and loves every TV show. We'll let you decide by tuning to this week's episode of the Engadget Podcast below. Hosts: Ben Drawbaugh (@bjdraw), Richard Lawler (@rjcc) Producer: Joe Pollicino (@akaTRENT) Hear the podcast
Alltel picks up pair of low-end clamshells
We've finally reached a stage where we're comfortable throwing the term "low-end" at a phone with Bluetooth -- and as such, we give you LG's AX355 for Alltel. The modest flip lacks EV-DO, but offers a speakerphone, 1.3-megapixel camera, and a black & white external display for $69.99 on a 2-year contract. Joining the AX355 is the AX390, another LG handset that also lacks EV-DO. The 390 drops the camera but shaves 10 bucks off the out-the-door price, coming in at $59.99 with contract. Both phones support Alltel's "Touch2Talk" PTT service and are available immediately.[Via phoneArena and Mobilewhack]
