Sprint and LG’s second gen LG Rumor available March 15

LG Rumor 2

The popular Sprint LG Rumor is about to give way to a newer, sleeker LG Rumor 2.  Still exclusively available on the Sprint network, the LG Rumor 2 is set to be available on March 15, only online, though.  By April 19, the new smartphone will be available in all stores nationwide.

Let’s see what features the new LG phone will have in store for us.  To begin with, it will come with a full slide out QWERTY keypad for fast texting and emailing.  In addition, it comes with a 1.3MP camera, large QVGA screen, removable backplate, 16GB microSD card slot expansion to play all your favorite songs, and Bluetooth connectivity.  In terms of GPS navigation, it comes with Sprint Navigation, which includes voice directions, turn-by-turn on screen directions, and 10 million business listings. 

Unfortunately, no word on exact pricing as of yet.  If you purchase the phone with a two year contract, I’m sure the cost of it will not be too high.

    I have a question.  Why can’t I get youtube videos to work?  It says i have to get a handler but I don’t know where to get the handler.  Could someone help me out?  Thanks

    According to what I keep finding on various forums, the Rumor and Rumor 2 are not compatible with video services, such as video mail or YouTube.

      Which means I kinda got ripped off. I mean, it’s a great phone, but I USED to enjoy watching YouTube videos over my lunch breaks. Now I’m stuck with nothing more that my job’s corporate communism propaganda to pass the time…
