Rogers launched the LG Neon two weeks ago and now Fido has done the same.
The Neon allows you to keep in touch through SMS, MMS, and instant messaging (WLM or Y!M). A 2.0 MP is on the back side of the touch screen, which can only be used for dialing. Bluetooth, a built in MP3 player, and FM radio round out this QWERTY phone.
Fido pricing for the LG Neon:
$50-2 year
$175-no contract
Buy online or at any Fido retail store.

Could this be the BlackBerry 99xx (Pluto), Research in Motions’s fully QWERTY keyboard with SurePress display? CrackBerry has received a “leaked” photo of the device with a target launch date of late 2009 on Rogers Wireless.
I call fake-what do you think?
