According to an anonymous Engadget Mobile tipster, Verizon have renamed their U940 smartphone - a version of the Samsung F700 - from “Q-Ball” to “Glyde”.  It’s a change that has already prompted some curiosity, with commentors suggesting that the handset now sounds like a form of lubricant.  Personally, if I were over there in the naming department at Verizon, I might be tempted to think again. 

The U940 Glyde (no, seriously, it’s an awful name) is expected to drop in March this year.
