    @ Ritchie

    Does it say anywhere that these phone are going to verizon? No. The GT505 is going to Orange. Which is a European carrier. And the GW520 is most likely going to another Eurpean carrier.

    I think LG and Samsung are having a competition to see which one can release more variants of the same phone.
