No. The data plan is required with the Fathom.
Tha LG Fathom does require a data plan if you get it from Verizon. I used to have one with Verizon.

Not without a front camera
LG Optimus Black was created in 2011.
LG Optimus One was created in 2010.
LG Optimus Chic was created in 2010.
They're the same phone, just rebranded for different carriers. For example the LG Optimus S if for "S"print the LG Optimus U (not "you") is for "U".S. Cellular and LG Optimus V is for "V"irgin Mobile. In my opinion the Optimus is a great phone, and you will be very happy with it.
Yes. I currently own an LG Optimus V and it has a Body Glove Case on it. Any case that is designed for the Optimus S will fit the Optimus V.
Yes
$30 a month data plan
It's just LG's naming convention. It originally derived from the LG Optimus G and LG Optimus G Pro, which were the phone's predecessors. The "Optimus" branding was removed from the G2 going forward.
