We had a hunch that LG’s Android 2.1-based Ally would see its first customers on May 20th, and Verizon Wireless has finally opened up and confirmed as much this morning. The Iron Man 2-infused smartphone — which we spent some time with yesterday — will be available in all VZW stores beginning May 20th, with pre-orders going live for phone and web customers tomorrow. We’ve already given you the rundown when it comes to specs (they’re after the break for those with memories shorter than their shoelaces), but now we’re able to confirm that it’ll sell for $99.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate and a new two-year contract. A well-specced Android smartphone for under a Benjamin? Not bad, LG.
Update: Nothing in particular to write home about, but LG has just unveiled the Ally’s nearly complete spec sheet. [Thanks, Rey E.]
