The device features a QVGA landscape display, trackball navigation as found on the Pearl, a 2.0 megapixel camera with video recorder and flash, media player, and GPS support through VZ Navigator.

The device is now available for $319.99 after new 2 year agreement before two additional discounts (one instant online worth $100 and a mail-in rebate worth $50) that bring the total to $169.99.
