I'm considering the LG Lucid.

From the Verizon website:

Enhance your multimedia experience with Netflix® or by recording videos in full High Definition (1080p) and share them with friends and family via DLNA. Video Chat on the front–facing camera or snap photos with the 5MP rear–facing camera and upload them Facebook®, YouTube™, or your favorite social networking site. All your amazing first Smartphone experiences on America’s Fastest, Most Reliable 4G network.

Though I am a little annoyed that it seems to reset my notification settings with every update, but I wouldn't call using the Android standard for notification settings "sneaky".

I've never had to use this settings window to disable push notifications until I received ICS and the FB app to go with it. Disabling the settings under FB > Account > settings > notifications settings was enough before. Then again I haven't updated my FB app in a long time so maybe I missed some updates that started changing the default notifications.

A good friend of mine does data sales training for VZW and he recommends the Lucid. So, I think it's a good choice.
