Verizon Launching Pantech Breakout

I have to say the Breakout is a nice looking phone. It’s nice to see Pantech getting into things other than basic phones that’s for sure. The Breakout features a 1ghz CPU, a 4” screen with 480×800 resolution and it’s running Android Gingerbread! The best part is that it’s running on the 4G network so you’re sure for a nice speedy connection. Pricing will be $99.99 after $50 mail in rebate and of course on new 2yr contract and you’ll be able to get it September 22nd if you want one.

The Pantech Breakout smartphone, brought to market by Personal Communications Devices, LLC (PCD), shines with super-fast downloads packaged in a slim and attractive design.  Customers will have access to custom Pantech widgets and can share media files between Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA)-enabled devices by using the Net Media app on their Pantech Breakout.
