Yay! I am so excited. I got a great phone too, and I can't wait to actually have a phone that has consistent coverage!

Welcome I am sure you be very happy with Verizon god knows I am.
Yay! I have talked to a lot of people who have Verizon and they all LOVE their service.
I love my phone, and when my wife is ready to upgrade in a few weeks she may also go for the Voyager.
My 4 yr old daughter likes the fact that her Spongebob videos are always a few clicks away and she amazes her friends at dinners that we goto.
It is worth paying AT&T the ETF! And I am on month-to-month with Verizon, so no more contracts!!!

I ordered the PN 820 smartphone, it is a clamshell with an extendable antenna. The phone is being discontinued, so I decided to jump on it's low price now before it's too late.

What phone did you get?
I got the PN 820 after a lot of research. I like having an external antenna phone, they usually get better reception, and this one has an extendable antenna too!
remember if you think it sucks, exchange it within 30 days~!

I got free shipping (overnight) and free return shipping if I don't like it.
What phone did you go with? And was coverage the only reason why you switched.
i feel like its your favorite thing in life
Plus, once I started using Blackberries, I get an email when a post is answers, So I am to respond pretty quickly.
Phonescoop has been a great resource for me, and I feel like now that I know a lot more than I did a few years ago, maybe I can be a resource to someone else.

PN 820, and I switched for coverage and call clarity. AT&T is supposed to have excellent coverage, but GSM signal is very "bouncy" and it always cuts out. I used to have T-Mobile and they were worse.
I think you'll find it's a small sacrifice for getting a smooth phone call.
BTW, don't go overboard and charge your battery every night. You'll need a new battery after a year or so if you do that! Hope this all helps!

VZW is definitely a more consistent service. That consistency comes with a small price. Be prepared to charge your battery more often than you did with at&t. Of course if you've already switched from GSM to HSPA, you've already experienced this and you're good to go.

Thanks! I am a light talker and a light texter with the occasional internet usage, and I know the best way to keep your battery healthy is to let it get very low before recharging.
I had a RAZR wit...

Are you using a data plan with your PN-820? If not, you could get a bit more juice out of it by turning off EV-DO
I am only going to do texting, and for the first month I will get internet so I can download graphics and ringers, but after that, I'll keep the EV-DO off.

Glad I'm not the only one to love that retractable antenna. I will not buy a phone that doesn't have one..anyways welcome to verizon. Not to be a jerk but make sure you really test out that PN-820 because that phone is a total pos and a poor choice in imho. good luck
What don't you like about it? Everyone said the RAZR is a pos too, but I think it is ok. I read a lot of review of the PN 820 and I know what to expect. when it comes to high end stuff, I am not too picky, as long as it gets great reception and is a solid phone to use, that's all.
Cellenator said:
Cool you should be fine. I used it for a little bit and pantech combined with windows equaled disaster for me...but don't mind me. Have fun with it!!
I'll definitely play with the windows, but again it is 5.0 not 6.0 so I am not expecting a lot. As long as the phone itself is not slow when I am in the menu function. the RAZR has a buggy problem, especially when you have stuff downloaded to the phone.
the PN looks very cool, and I did get a leather case for it to protect it. :-)
