All you outdoorsy types and rough-necks out there take heed. Verizon has finally gone live with their much-anticipated successor to the ultra-rugged Casio G’zOne push-to-talk handset, the Verizon Casio G’zOne Boulder.
That’s right. Verizon’s online webstore is offering the Casio G’zOne Boulder for
$129.99 after 2-year contract and online discounts are applied. Those of you looking for more instant satisfaction can pick up the Casio G’zOne Boulder for $179.99 at your local Verizon brick-and-mortar store. Black-on-Silver is the only available color choice at the moment, but we’d imagine Verizon is readying that bright-orange jobby for release down the line.
The Casio G’zOne Boulder’s cosmetic updates, while significant and seriously eye-catching, aren’t the only changes in store for Verizon subscribers needing military-spec shock, dust, and water resistance. The Casio G’zOne Boulder offers a 1.3 megapixel camera (up from VGA resolution on the G’zOne Type-S), push-to-talk on the EVDO Rev. A network, and a slimmer profile.
Go forth, all you crazy water-borne, sand-loving, adrenaline junkies and grab yourself the absolute standard in rugged handsets. But, please, watch your step.
