THE SKINNY ON THE SKINNIER LG ENV2
The new skinnier LG enV2 (squared) handset is now available at Verizon Wireless stores nationwide for $129.99 after a $50 rebate and the usual two-year contract or extension.
Sort of a touch-less version of the LG Voyager (although technically the Voyager is a touchscreen takeoff of the older enV), the new enV, like its predecessor, is a horizontal flip phone. The front of the phone looks like your standard candy bar phone. Crack it open and you get a larger 2.4-inch widescreen bracketed by twin speakers and a full QWERTY keyboard like a tiny PC, perfect for heavy emailers and texters.
The new enV is .13 of an inch thinner, more than a half-inch shorter and nearly a half ounce lighter than its predecessor. You can yack for up to 5 hours and 20 minutes, almost an hour longer than on the original enV, and will standby for more than three weeks on a single charge.
You won't be envious (sorry, had to do it) of anyone else's phone with the enV's feature pack. For one thing, the enV will be one of the first Verizon handsets equipped with VZ Navigator 4, Verizon's cell-based navigation service ($9.99/month, $2.99/day). enV also includes a 2 MP camera/video recorder, V CAST Music for MP3, WMA and non-protected AAC playback, V CAST Video, all the usual POP3 and IMAP email options, a micro SDHC slot (up to 8 GB) and Stereo Bluetooth.

3G Comes to T-Mobile Phones in NYC
Four handsets from T-Mobile are going to get a speed boost, at least if you're using them in New York City. The carrier has launched 3G UMTS/HSDPA service in the Big Apple with plans to roll out 3G network coverage in 20-to-25 of the country's major metro markets by the end of the year.
Immediately, two Nokia flip phones, the 6263 and the 3555 world phone, the latter of which became available two weeks ago, and two Samsung models, the flip t639 and the slider t819, will all be able to access T-Mobile's wireless Web at speeds of 200 to 300 kbps.
Unfortunately, there'll be no indicator on these four models to let you know if you're in 3G range except Web pages will load quicker and Thumbplay and other downloads will finish faster than under T-Mobile's EDGE network.
T-Mobile plans to launch HSDPA-specific phones, including new data-oriented all-in-one devices capable of speeds of data rates of 600 kbps to 1 mbps in the coming months, presumably when there's a critical mass of potential buyers in affected markets.
