At a pre-CES show in Manhattan last night, handset manufacturer unveiled their first Android handset, the Saygus VPhone. The handset will be available to Verizon Wireless customers but being an Open Development Initiative handset, the device wont be supported by Verizon. Instead, handset support will be supplied by Saygus themselves.
