Any phones coming with XV6800's features?
I have an XV6800 with MR2 update, and I am wondering if there are any similar (but better!) phones coming soon. I use it for business.
Requirements:
**MUST BE VZW** Period. AT&T fans, p*ss off. Been there, done that, hated it.

You stated, "You can also get plug-ins to change the registry, without hacking it, that get rid of the pop ups." I have PHM Regedit installed (to do the Valhalla hack). Can I use that to change something to kill the new email notifications?
