Cool New Cell Phones Released

Verizon customers sent and received 10 billion text messages during the month of July. That's one reason why Verizon is coming out with the text-friendly Voyager."It actually vibrates so you know what you touched is what you actually selected," a Verizon employee saidThe Voyager has a touch-sensitive screen on the outside. When you flip it open, a second screen appears on the inside where you can watch videos and surf the Internet.

Another hot phone for text messengers is called the Tilt from AT&T."The Tilt runs on Microsoft Office," Maurice Contreras of AT&T said. "You can integrate it with your corporate service. It will integrate with your Gmail, your Yahoo email, your personal e-mail addresses."

AT&T also offers the iPhone. More than 1 million have been sold since its summer debut."It's $399 but it's the ultimate phone," Contreras said. "It's the ultimate Internet device, just the ultimate mobile phone."AT&T's Video Share feature allows users to have videoconferences with other AT&T customers."I can be anywhere in the country and you would be able to see me and hear me as long as you had this feature on your AT&T phone," reported NBC 6's Joel Connable.

Sprint's newest Blackberry is perfect for people who need to take their office with them. It has e-mail, maps and a GPS system."I type in my mom's home address and it tells me exactly point-to-point directions," Emicel Ana of Sprint said.One of the smallest phones on the market is Verizon's Juke.It flips open like a switchblade knife and is made for people who like to download music. It also has a built-in 2 gigabyte memory for music.You can also track your kids with Verizon's family locater. A GPS is built in the phone so you always know where they are.
