Verizon announces the LG 10000 Voyager, a phone that Mike Lanman, Chief Marketing Officer of Verizon says will kill the iPhone. The phone takes 8GB SD cards, runs on Verizon’s EvDo network and using this high-speed wireless connectivity connect to V CAST TV and music.
The Voyager is a touchscreen phone with a slide-out QWERTY keypad. It doesn’t have WiFi but Verizon has high hopes for it and as Mike Lanman confidently puts it, “We think it’ll be the best phone… this year. It will kill the iPhone.”

I knew the iPhone, the iPhone was a friend of mine, and you Mr. Voyager are no iPhone.

Oh puleeeeeeeezzzze!
Mike Lanman is blowing smoke. Look for the mirrors behind his back being manipulated by Denbis Strigl, Verizon’s Chief Operating Officer.
Verizon and all other cellphone manufacturers have yet to get it. The OS X operating system gives the iPhone its foundation for the wonderful and intuitive user interface. OS X is what makes the iPhone a pleasure and joy to use. The other manufacturers can design the cutest and sexist cellphone, but they are still running a limited, outdated, and handicapped operating system. It will be many YEARS before any company will be able to come up with an operating system that has a competitive user interface with OS X on the iPhone.
Yep. The OS is rather key there. But..perhaps the Google Phone OS will level the playing field a bit for manufacturers.
Nice, can’t wait to get my hands on that and check it out!
IT SUCKS THAT THIS PHONE IS SUPPOSE TO COMPETE WIT IPHONE BUT HAS NO WI-FI CONNECTIVITY. I GOT THE 9900 AND I DON’T C MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE THAN THE TOUCH SCREEN CAPABILITY. VERIZON NEEDS TO GO BAK 2 THE LAB ON THIS ONE THE IPHONE IS SICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!
i think the voyager is awesome. my brother is getting in like a week. its gonna be sweet
:]]
I am having problem with the battery. No longer life than 5 hours. That sucks because I do business on my phone.
the voyager is awesomeee! as for the iPhone…it confuses me. alot. :D
I have to admit, the iPhone is pretty cool and yes, amazing ! But there is something that the voyager has that the iPhone doesn’t. Such as a keyboard. The iPhone is very difficult to type on. This is why the voyager is better for children of teen ages. Also, the Voyager is cheaper. So either way they are both pretty amazing to me. And quit complaining, some people don’t even have enough money for a cell phone.
cool phone like a nokia communicator
i hear lots of good and bad things about both phones. personally, i dont like at&t or cingular or whatever they call themselves now. also, the iphone doesn’t have a keyboard that opens up for texting(i like buttons when it comes to typing) so i think i like the voyager better
I think the Voyager is the BEST phone ever, I have the alias and I LOVE verizon. Verizon kills Cingular/At&t. They suck…….. but I’m looking forward to getting a Voyager.
I want this phone like now!!!!! Is it in Australia?? Hmmm.
