Pantech &amp; Curitel is Korea's second largest handset manufacturer. In addition to selling handsets under their own brand in Asia, the company's phones are also re-badged; in the US they are often sold by UT Starcom / Audiovox. Pantech is reportedly seeking distribution deals with Virgin Mobile, Alltel and Metro PCS as well, and is already providing test units to Sprint."</i><br /><br />I wonder if this means that we will get to see that cool <a href="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8814">Pantech PH-S8000T</a> with the swivel screen in the US sometime soon?

It's about time Verizon got a decent Smartphone for its line up.
