chavez -el-v ergatario- mobile-phone-1
Hugo Chavez, the socialist President of Venezuela, launched a new cell phone on Mothers Day. His first call on the phone was to his mother.
The phone costs $15, and may be is the cheapest phone in the world. Interesting ? hmm , okay, here is something else that will make you go crazy, the meaning of the word Vergatorio is Penis … shocked ??
I have no clue why he chose that word. He even joked on his TV show saying, ”Whoever doesn’t have a Vergatario is nothing,” now, that’s what we call CRAZY !!
The phone has a camera, WAP internet access, FM radio and MP3 and MP4 players for music and videos. Fair enough for a $15 phone. Now, we should wait for the review of this phone. Once the review is out, let’s see what’s the future of this phone is. Will this Vergatario phone reach India some day ? a phone with cam, fm, video and mp3, for less than Rs.1000 !!
Can’t believe it ? Read the news here

I used to have a huge respect for this man ! But somehow, he comes across as an average politician these days !
And when the average politician shows of a gadget, the essence gets lost.
Even though, the features and price of this gadget is indeed alluring. To say the least !
Kavi’s last blog post..The Market Dance
may be it’s a coincidence, I read an article about him today on “THE HINDU”, and he sounded quite good, now I have started thinking the other way around
Wow. A $15 phone with mp3, Camera is something we all are looking forward to be launched in india.

that will be awesome, priced under 1000 ( I guess ) !!
Just like everything about Chavez is hot gas, i think this one could also be the same. Wait till the reviews come out of some independent websites/papers. There is no point listening to this fellow.
yes, that sounds better

dont b lazy now. paste sentence after ‘denominado vergatorio’ into google translate
okay, I am not a language expert, I found the news on Guardian, and I have given it as my source
I will check links you suggested.
The name amused me to no ends. What made them name the mobile that way?
amit’s last blog post..The flowers are here!
I’ve no idea either !! may be a cheap marketing technique ..
Get the news right man. Vergatorio does not mean penis.
It is derived from the word Verga, which can be used in a variety of slang/vulgar terms,modismos as in..
Anda verga =He’s drunker than @#$@.
Te voy a dar verga=I am going to beat the @#%$ out of you.
Me vale verga= I don’t give a @#$%.
Su esposa le dio un gran vergazo= His wife beat the holy living S@#$ out of him.
Walk any street in any Central American or northern South America country and you will here this colloquial street language.
Vergatorio is the name of the phone. Chavez is using the name as a slang/vulgar marketing ploy. I know the word Hx, because I lived in El Salvador. It would be as if the states came out with a cell phone called the Southparko-mobile.
Whats the phones real name? vergatorio or vergatario
