Warning! Possible Poor Reception.
I had the chance to see a pre production model and it's reception was very poor. Production model might, hopefully be different.
Wrong information
The last sprint phone was the V60v and sprint never carried the V60p. The V60p was a Verizon only push-to-talk.
Still not at Verizon
This phone is avaiable online but not at the store. Why?

Yea i know it puts a lot of people in a lot of bad situations because the tri-mode phones they offer arent worth anything to anyone. And ones tri-mode is gone we wont have a back up mode which will really suck but all that the cell phone reps tell us is what happens when you get a analog call you cant hear anything or you lose it. Well than i ask why do you still ...
Re: Tri-mode
Ah, I use analog everytime I go "upnorth." It is the only service available. The Goverment says that analog must not be turned off untill 2008.

After doing some reading on cellphonehacks.com and howardforms.com, here is what I found. First you need a USB cable to connect your phone to PC. This comes with Motorola Phone Tools Software available on E-bay and from others. This allows PC to phone connection for contacts and calander only. You have to download Motorola Product Support Tool (PST) and install it. This allows you to edit the "CDMA Enhanced Roaming Indicator File" on the phone. The text "Verizon ...
Re: Best Verizon Phone for BFE (for a weak weak signal)
Thanks for the help. How about the Startac 7868w or the Timeport 270c? Both were told to be the best.
Best Verizon Phone for BFE (for a weak weak signal)
I travel in upper Michigan and use Verizon. I need a phone that can pull a signal in when out in the woods. I know that I should have analog roaming ability with my Audiovox 9900 but can't pull a signal. What Verizon phone (current or discontinued) has the best signal strength.

Re: Can someone provide a list of American Cell Co.'s
Yeah, I know that. I was hopping on a full list that included regionals from the smallest to the largest.

Any help would be cool.

Now for the irrelevant part, really boys Don't you think you are old enough to not worry about lowbrow bashing?
I'll bet sometimes Rich feels like a disgruntled parent and wants to say something like; "Don't make me pull this forum over."
MuchDrama, I'm surprised at you. So Joachim challenged your wireless manhood. You who have successfully dueled it out with more worthy opponents feel compelled to answer the challenge of someone who really comes to the wireless wit table ...
Re: MuchDrama (ie. Joachim)
Joachim, calm down my son. It cracks me up how everyone has to trash talk on this board instead of discussing the actual subject. So you like your service better then his, big deal! If yours is so good then tell us why, don’t just say “Verizon Sucks” it makes you sound like a idiot. It’s too bad there are so many immature people on this board that resort to trash talk rather then actual discussion. ...

Re: What it all means...
Is it at all possible for us to stay on subject? What dose to Sprint Nextel deal mean for the wireless consumers of America? How about for the workers of both Sprint and Nextel?
Re: What it all means...
I kinda agree. I think it is good news for the companies but not so good news for us the consumers. In the past few weeks we have gone from the "big 5" down to the "super big 3." Less competition the worse off for us.
What it all means...
So what dose everyone think of this?
Re: Nextel iden history?
Basically a business prospective, profiling Nextel. Current news is easy to come by it's the early years that i'm having problems with. What made Nextel choose to use iden? Was there a competing technology? How come other TDMA carriers of the time did not use iden?
Nextel iden history?
Anyone point me in the right direction where I could find a history of Nextel/iden? I am trying to do a paper explaining the development of iden technology and can't seem to find anything on the roots of both Nextel and iden.
Any help would be great!
If I buy this @ hellomoto.com
If I buy the V810 at hellomoto.com for full price can I use it on Verizon Wireless network?
Moto Car phones

Re: Verizon using the Sprint Network?
Sorry about the spelling...
Verizon using the Sprint Network?
Dose anyone know if you can force a Verizon phone to use the Sprint PCS (1900) network? Say you have a weak signal where you live but a friend has a strong PCS signal could you make your phone use the 1900 band instead of the 800.
If this is possible would Vernon charge you because you would be roaming on another network?
Re: Price Drop
Online you can get one for 169.99 with out any contract! This is good only through the 28th, when the V260 comes in the lineup to replace that price point. The V265 will once again be $269.99 with no contract.
So get yours soon!!!
What about the date!
Anyone found a way to get the phone to display the date?
This has to be the first phone in a long time that dose not have this simple feature.
Re: why is this phone not sold @ corprite any more
