What you are looking at pictured above is Verizon's rebate information on the Samsung device pictured below. This may not be that ultimate leak you have been dying for but it says that Big Red is going to offer a $50 rebate for the upcoming Samsung Illusion, a 3G phone with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard.

The only real info we have on this device is a flickr image and some speculated specs. We expect the Illusion to have either an 800MHz or 1GHz processor, a 480 x 320 screen, and a 3 to 5MP camera. We originally believed the device to have a possible $50-$100 price tag, but with this leaked rebate info we may actually see this device cost nada. Either way, if your looking for an affordable QWERTY device keep an eye out over the next couple weeks because that is when we expect to see the device become available. Besides, the rebate period is only valid between Nov. 1st and Nov. 28th.

Stacy Bruce was born and raised in Spokane Washington. He attended the University of Washington to study pre-med only to change his course study a year later to forensic science. Although currently not a doctor or a scientist, some believe he posseses the knowledge of both. He was a resident of San Diego California for ten years, lived beachside and sometimes wonders why the hell he moved back to Spokane. A multi-talented man, Stacy is a fabricator, an artist, a gear head, a tech junkie and at most, the disciple of Casanova. Growing up, he was always enthralled with electronics, gadgets and gizmos. Throughout his life he has had one, if not two, of every cool and new electronic device available. He began his smartphone experience with the original iPhone. After realizing it was more like theirPhone, he decided he wanted the ability to customize, so Stacy moved to the OG Droid and has been a loyal Android fanatic ever since. Moving through all of the top tier Verizon phones, he recently retired his Droid Charge in favor of the Galaxy Nexus, only to wonder what great device Samsung will come out with next. Stacy is a busy new homeowner in where he lives with his beautiful girlfriend and two dogs.
