Verizon Wireless to launch LG Fathom on May 27th

LG Fathom

Verizon Wireless today announced plans to offer the LG Fathom as of May 27th.

The ultimate on-the-go office, the LG Fathom redefines productivity with Windows Phone power, stylish design and smart global capabilities for making voice calls in more than 220 countries and accessing data in 200 countries, 110 with 3G speeds.

LG Fathom specifications:

  • Processor: 1GHz
  • Operating system: Windows Mobile 6.5.3
  • Connectivity: CDMA/EVDO and GSM/UMTS
  • Other connectivity: GPS, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1
  • Display: 3.2-inch
  • Input: Slide-out QWERTY keyboard
  • Storage: microSD (up to 16GB)
  • Camera: 3.2MP with auto-focus

Verizon Wireless will offer the LG Fathom for US$149.99 after a US$100 mail-in rebate and with a two-year agreement. It will go on sale through Verizon Wireless business sales channels on May 27th and online and in Communications Stores on June 3rd.

I wonder how many more Windows Mobile 6.5.3 devices we will see before the expected release of Windows Phone 7. Could the LG Fathom be the last?
