I played with it at CES and loved it. The strength of the hinge is one concern however. Even with that fear, I'll likely switch to it as soon as Verizon has it in stores.

Im not a big fan of the VERY small keyboard..seemed to be a sturdy design though..I would hold out for the other colors that will follow unless you like the gold lookin color

The keyboard is small, yes, but I see it as one key per letter for texting while still maintaining a phone the size of the LG 8600 that I use now.
Color choices will be nice and I'll let the price drop as well.

It is about the same size as the 8600?! awsome.

I'm between the 8600 and SCH-u740 anyhow.

GOOO New-Every-Two!

Yep, I held it in my hands at CES in Jan when I was using Sprints Samsung a900, a week before moving to Verizon and the 8600. All three are small % points of the same measurements.

My company discount didn't have the u740 or I might have skipped the 8600 all together.
