Droid Charge Details Released...$300 Dollars On Contract

Really Verizon, $300 for a single-core processor and outdated version of Android?

Details via a wayward Walmart price tag has given us an idea of what Verizon will be charging for their next 4G handset, the Droid Charge from Samsung. Droid Life has the picture that shows the 2 year contract price for the Android 2.2 powered device going for $298.88 or $700 out the door without a contract, a full $50 more than their first 4G device the Thunderbolt. All that for a handset from an OEM that rarely updates and apparently without any SD card (if the Walmart image can be believed), i.e. with only 2GB of internal memory.

Anyone looking forward to shelling out 3 hundred bones for this? If so April 28th appears to be the day you'll be able to if you are so inclined.

UPDATE: Verizon literature does show the Charge coming with a 32GB microSD which makes a bit more sense.
