Verizon Wireless introduced Tuesday the Motorola Krave, a 3G-enabled touch-screen handset whose clear, interactive flip-top enables users to access some functions — like making a call — without opening the phone. The Bluetooth-equipped ZN4 contains an array of multimedia features, a 2-megapixel camera, 2.8-inch screen and a QWERTY keyboard. InformationWeek (10/14)

AT&T will roll out four new handsets this fall armed with QWERTY keyboards, aimed at making it easier to type out text messages, the company said Tuesday in introducing the models: the Pantech Matrix, Samsung Propel, Pantech Slate and AT&T Quickfire, all priced at or below $100. All will reach stores in late October, except for the high-end Quickfire, which AT&T will release in November. Digital Trends (10/14) , Mobiledia (10/14)
