There are a ton of pictures for a G-Shock phone that looks like it would be part of Batman's utility belt. Was that the predecessor to the new Commando, or is that another phone that is still in development? With the less than glowing reviews of the new Commando, I'd rather wait it out if there's another phone on the verizon (not ready for an upgrade until 2015, so who knows what will be out then).
 
The pics of a Gshock phone were of a prototype shown to focus groups. The Japanese Commando 2 is model CA-201L, just like in Korea, which is pretty much the Commando 4G. If you need the biggest screen, the highest pixel count, the most RAM, the fastest processor, the most cores, and the slimmest, keep what you have or keep shopping. If you want a phone that performs well in all respects and will keep doing that regardless of what you do to it, get the new Commando. It's every bit as good a performer as the Moto Razr Maxx HD I had that didn't survive an encounter with a hardwood floor. That's why they make different kinds. Choice.
