VZW discoing the Kyocera 7135
Last chance to get a lousy piece of junk! Once they're all out of the warehouse, that's it, no more replenishing! 'Bout damn time, too... stupid outdated lousy not-very-smartphone [grumble]...

Just a heads up and a word to the wise. If you have one of these phones you need to upgrade ASAP. VZW is no longer supporting this handset AT ALL! They will not activate or service this phone in any way shape or form. Get a Treo or the 6600 or wait for the Samsung 730.

I have seen us replace them with a Treo600 though. That works out nice for people.
The 7135 is such a funny looking phone though. I had the Samsung i500 which looks exactly like the 7135 but waaaay smaller. I can't imagine lugging that phone around. It seriously was laughable to me when I saw it for the first time.
