I have to wonder who sits around coming up with names for phones? is there some group of people at these companies that just sit around all day thinking of names for phones? Seriously though, where do they get the names from?  I guess I could say the same thing about car companies as well, where do they come up with some of those names.. anyway, the LG Fathom has just been announced from Verizon and it will be available May 27th online and it’s a smartphone with a 3.2” touch screen and a 1GHz processor along with a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard and it has a 3.2MP camera.  It’s a business centric phone, that seems like it has many great features especially the price at $149.99 after $100 mail-in rebate with new 2yr contract.
