Looks like the touchscreen LG Versa has made an appearance over at Verizon stores nationwide, and online. The device is offered up for $199 with a $50 mail-in rebate… and of course, a 2-year contract needs to be penned to pick up the handset. Although I’ve never actually held the Versa in my hand, I will say it looks very interesting at the very least.
