LG's enV phone isn't making its debut here at CES, but the hot new phone is a highlighted at the company's booth on the show floor. Also known as the VX9900, the enV is a follow-up to the company's popular VX9800 messaging phone.
Check out our video for a closer look at the phone's features.
Like the VX9800, the enV features a folding design. When closed, it looks like a standard, candy bar style phone, but it flips open to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. It features two color screens; an external 128-by-160 LCD that can display 8 lines of text and an internal 240-by-320 LCD that can display 11 lines. The enV is thinner than its predecessor, but still thicker than the average cell phone.
The tradeoff for this bulk, however, is the convenience of the full keyboard--a rarity on non-PDA phones, and a very handy tool for composing instant messages and e-mails.
The enV is available for $200 with a two-year contract from Verizon Wireless. It supports Verizon's high-speed EvDO data network. The enV also includes a 2.0-megapixel camera and a music player that supports Verizon's V Cast music service.
