It has a “big” sliding keyboard that comes in QWERTY style so you can type easier.Other features of the upcoming Verizon Wireless cellphone include WiFi, a 1.3 megapixel camera to shoot photos and record videos, offers portrait and landscape modes, and also a stylus pen. The only thing left to do is wait and see when does Verizon adds the SCH-i760 to their catalog, which should be in the real near future.” via mobilewhack.com
