As it turned out this week, Sprint is not the only carrier to launch cheap texters offerd by LG. It is Verizon, actually, which is getting into the game too, but in a snaky manner- through a proxy, that is to say-with the help pf some guys from Alltel.
The Banter has a solid low-end landscape QWERTY slider with a 1.3 megapixel camera, microSD, a Bluetooth and a changeable front and back plates. These features may give you the impression that LG Banter is like the dead Rumor 2 ringer.
The Banter will soon be available in stores already. Currently there is no pricing information about the handset, but we do think that it will be quite cheap on contract.
