Actually, I just checked....and they offer 11 different "smart" phones.

When the vast majority of people want to watch the Simpsons (which I actually think you can do with Vcast Mobile TV), and play Quake on their tiny phones, I think Verizon will accommodate. Actually, Verizon has quite a few action games for their phones. I don't see Quake 1, but they have COD 4, Rainbow Six, etc: Verizon Wireless: Games: Overview
