Remember the Samsung Galaxy Stellar, which we’ve first seen leaked a month ago? Well, we now have another proof it’s heading to Verizon Wireless as you can see from a leaked pamphlet, pictured above. The mid-end device will most likely be unveiled any day now, and what’s interesting about it is that it will come with pre-loaded Amazon Apps. We guess the Big Red carrier wants a piece of the mobile app purchases hence it wants you to download apps and other content from Amazon Appstore rather than Google Play.

In addition, the same pamphlet also talks about some “Starter Mode” which is a mystery to us. Are they referring to the original Ice Cream Sandwich experience without Samsung’s TouchWIZ or what? Guess we’ll have to wait a bit to get all the answers…
