Based around the apparent advantages of one-touch interfacing, U.S. mobile operator Verizon Wireless has revealed its new – and aptly named – Motorola Entice (W766), which arrives with a classic flip design and instant access to an on-board music player, camera and speakerphone.

Connected to Verizon’s high-speed 3G network, the Entice delivers its touch-based features through contact with external sensors, while the flip-to-open chassis comes equipped with a large and bright LCD screen for easy content viewing.

Core technical aspects squashed into the Entice include a modest 2.0 mega pixel camera (with video recording capabilities) along with support for up to 8GBs of internal memory (via microSD), Bluetooth connectivity and USB 2.0.

Verizon Wireless services available on the Entice include VZ Navigator, Family Locator, Mobile Email, Mobile IM and Dashboard.

Best of all when it comes to properly ‘enticing’ prospective handset customers, Motorola’s latest addition to Verizon’s bulging mobile phone portfolio only costs $39.99 USD after a mail-in rebate of $50 USD and an agreed two-year service contract.
