Yesterday LG officially announced the Glimmer and today the device appeared on Alltel’s website. However, that doesn’t mean you can grab it right away. D-Day (or that’s G-Day) is set for March 13th (tomorrow) when you’ll be able to buy the stylish slider for $249.99 with an appropriate contract.
Bare in mind this phone has GPS, EV-DO, Bluetooth, large touchscreen and much more under the hood — hence 250 bucks seems quit reasonable. In addition, if you’re living in an area where Alltel is the only mobile operator, the LG Glimmer will certainly make you the coolest guy/girl around.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
