Will Verizon Get the Nokia Lumia 900? It Should [Video]

Nokia has been creating a buzz at this year’s CES because of the mobile OS empowering their smartphones. The phone manufacturer is taking full advantage of Windows Phone Mango, and several months after teaming with Microsoft they have something worthwhile for US consumers.  So let’s take a look at what the Nokia Lumia 900 is packing.

Noah Kravitz of TechnoBuffalo was able to provide a firsthand look at the Nokia Lumia 900 (full video below).  The smartphone features a Gorilla Glass screen with 4.3 inch AMOLED display, and unlike the Lumia 800 which lacks a front facing camera, the Lumia is equipped with a 1MP front camera.  It’s 4G/LTE ready, and comes in either blue or black polycarbonate case.

The Nokia Lumia 900 is coming to AT&T exclusively by the second quarter of this year.
Kravitz relayed that he was given a chance to ask Stephen Elop, Nokia CEO, one question and he chose to ask if Nokia would be coming to Verizon Wireless.  Some people thought he was being a smartass but it was really a good question, especially now that Nokia is aiming for a US comeback.

Elop answered his question with the usual “We don’t comment on rumors and speculations,” but then continued with, “Well we want to reach all the consumers possible in the US.”  SO there’s a possibility that the Nokia Lumia 900 might also come to Verizon Wireless.  Here’s hoping!
