A couple of days ago, we heard that Verizon would be launching the Motorola Rival A455 and the Casio Exilim C721 on June 10th. Well, the pricing details was just announced. Verizon Wireless will be releasing this QWERTY-packed phone on June 10 for $99 USD after a $50 mail-in rebate on a 2-year contract., $169 after a $50 mail-in rebate on a 1-year contract, and also $269 for a full retail of the handset.

The Casio Exilim C721's price details have also been outlined. It will be available on June 10 from Verizon Wireless for $279 after a $50 mail-in rebate on a 2-year contract, $349 after a $50 mail-in rebate on a 1-year contract, and also $449 for a full retail of the waterproof handset with a 5.1MP camera.

You thought that AT&T would get all the fun leaking handsets? Well, it looks like Verizon Wireless feels the need to show off just 2 of their future handsets. One being the Motorola Rival A455 and the other being the Casio Exilim C721.

First up is the Rival A455 from Motorola. It has: a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, EV-DO connectivity, GPS, Bluetooth, and a 2MP camera. Clearly, it's not a high-end phone, but then again it's a Motorola handset. Did you expect anything more? Next up is the Casio Exilim C721, which is that water resistant phone we heard about in early April. Remember, the ad with the girl in the shower? The Exilim C721 has: a 5.1MP camera, a swiveling WVGA display and, like I said, is water resistant. Both of these handsets will launch on June 10 on Verizon Wireless, but there has been no word on the pricing.
