Okay, so you've seen the commercial over and over again. Verizon will be getting the LG (C710) Ally handset, but when? Thanks to Boy Genius we now know everything we need to about this handset. The full spec sheet is below if you're interested. The sad part about the spec sheet is that it actually packs a Qualcomm MSM7227 600MHz CPU, so it's not the Snapdragon 1GHz that everyone (including me) was expecting. Verizon will be taking pre-orders for this handset is two days, on May 13th, and the full launch will be a week from then, May 20th. The price isn't known but I'm expecting it to launch for cheaper than $150, but what do I know?
