New Verizon Handsets: Samsung Alias, LG enV2, HTC Touch XV6900, Motorola Q9c
New Verizon Handsets: LG enV2, HTC Touch XV6900, Samsung Alias, Motorola Q9c. Verizon just unveiled four handsets: Samsung Alias, LG enV2, Motorola Q9c and HTC XV6900 Touch.

+ Samsung Alias - Successor to the U740 model, according to Verizon's release, even though we're not quite sure what's better about it except the color of the device and somewhat improved keyboard. Then again, as we've argued before, Verizon must be thinking that by calling their devices by names rather than numbers, customers will remember them better. Anyway, the Alias will be available in mid-April for $129.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement.

+ HTC XV6900 Touch is the device you probably know everything about. However, unlike the original Touch this one has more memory — 256 MB ROM and 128 MB RAM — hence it should work bit faster.

Also coming in April, and will cost $349.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and with a contract.
