I would be willing to say that it does not have the Verizon UI since it's slightly old and discontinued. I'm not sure what you mean by Gin unless you're talking about a Kyocera Preloaded game in which case I honestly don't know.
This phone does not have the VZW UI; yes, the SE47 is GetItNow Capable (according to the VZW support site )
phonescoop.com says it's Location enabled, meaning yeah it's e911 compatible, you should be able to activate it on Verizon if it is a verizon original, keep in mind alltel, metropcs, virgin, cricket, cellular one, US Cellular, Qwest Mobile all carried variants of this phone under the se47/44 V5 model. If it's got Verizon stamped on it they should allow it though.
We just gave a retired 47 to my Father-in-Law and he activated it on Verizon. He loves the phone and especially the ease of use of the speaker phone feature. It's a really good little cell phone for those whose fingers are small enough to use it easily. As I remember, it does access the web, albeit in a rudimentary way.
