ImageAlltel has listed the previously FCC approved Motorola VE465 midrange clamshell.

The clamshell features a 1.3 MP Camera with 4x digital zoom and video recorder, media player, Celltop support, microSDHC slot, Bluetooth with stereo audio support, and touch sensitive outer controls with haptic feedback. The phone was previously approved by the FCC in January for use on CDMA AWS networks in use by Metro PCS and Cricket, but neither carrier has picked up the phone for final testing and sale.
