Yesterday was a day when Verizon Wireless delivered lots of new goodies to its customers, first with the Samsung Sway, and then with the Motorola Rapture VU30 and VU204, along with the MOTOPURE H15 Universal Bluetooth Headset.

The Motorola Rapture VU30 is available since yesterday, while the MOTOPURE H15 Universal Bluetooth Headset will be made available online and in Verizon Wireless Communications Stores starting Wednesday. The two phones, meaning the VU30 and the VU204, will go on sale on all channels starting October 14.

Motorla Rapture VU30 is a clamshell design phone with a touch-sensitive external display. It allows users to take pictures and also to access their music, without even having to open the phone. The device also brings users a dedicated shutter button for the 2.0 megapixel camera with enhanced photo and video capture. Users will be able to expand the phone's memory through the microSD card slot that can support up to 8GB.

Using V CAST Music with Rhapsody, Verizon users will be granted access to more than 5 million songs for purchase and download on their Motorola VU30. Meanwhile, using a USB cable, they can copy the songs to their PCs, free of digital rights management.

MOTO VU24 is a phone designed to meet the everyday needs of users on-the-go. It also has a clamshell design, and a VGA camera with 4x digital zoom and dedicated camera key to easily capture images, just like the VU30. The device also supports stereo Bluetooth wireless technology, and Verizon's Wireless Media Center and VZ Navigator service, so that users can download the music they want and surf the net.

The Universal Bluetooth Headset MOTOPURE H15 is compatible with both the VU30 and the VU204, and features a flip design with the best background-noise cancellation.

The price for the Motorola Rapture VU30 is $129.99, while the MOTO VU204 will be available for $29.99, with a two-year contract and a $50 mail-in rebate. MOTOPURE H15 will be in Verizon stores and online for $99.99, starting October 8.
