It looks nice enough... I just upgraded last month, but I may just get this anyway since full retail for the Ally isn't outrageous ($370), unlike the Incredible and Motorola Droid.
This is probably one of the better mid-range Android phones. Not as high-powered as the Droid Incredible, but better than the Eris and other lower-end smartphones and advanced devices. Personally, I'm still leaning towards the Incredible, but this phone is also a strong possibility. I'm a fan of LG devices (as I've had good success with the Voyager), so it's nice to see them with an Android device.
I wonder why the phone is still stuck in pre-order status (phone is supposed to be available 5/20) http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2010/05/21/verizon-lg-ally-delayed-until-may-27th/ LG Ally Delayed Until May 27th | Android Phone Fans
I wonder if it's the same supply issues affecting the Droid Incredible? Maybe this phone is in higher demand than Verizon expected...
Well, in my online account, the Ally isn't under pre-order status anymore... it and the Fathom are up for grabs. On an slightly unreated note, the HTC Incredible is delayed by the lack of Samsung AMOLED screens
