Audiovox CDM-8920 / PM8920

The company I work for has just assigned me a new PM8920 phone, and while I don't love it, I'm sort of stuck with it.

I haven't been able to figure out how to turn the ringer off and have the phone vibrate though. I searched the manual, and found the info but when I try to do as instructed, the options aren't there.

Is there an easy way to toggle this phone from ring to vibrate?

Ok so I just got this phone, and I noticed that to the lower left of the camera and sort of under the antenna, there is a little flap like the headset jack but I have no clue what it is. Can anyone help me out w/ this?

Has anyone tried Handset Manager for PM8920? Personally I think it is very nice. I can manage phone book (this is very important to me) and do many things for the wallpaper and images.
Everyone seems to know futuredial and Susteen, which both have crappy products. After I try this Handset Manager product, I think it is really better than anything else, especially for PM8920. 🙂

does anyone know where i can get an unlocked version of this, and can i get it to operate on verizon?

Don't get this phone. I wouldn't recommend it. There are a lot of bad reviews about this phone

According to Sprint's website, the battery life for this phone is excellent.

The standard battery gives you 5.7 hours of talk time. That sounds too good to be true due to the fact the phone has a screen resolution of 262K colors and a built in 1.3 Mega-pixel Camera. Just those two features alone take up a lot of battery life. I believe that if you had an extended battery then it could be possible.

The phone should be out within the next week.

When is the Audiovox 8930 suppose to be released?

Sprint has changed their page for the 8920, the picture it there and the demo now works. It is not listed on their site yet but here is the direct link.

Does anyone out there know?

This has to be the HOTTEST phone. I have Verizon and I WISH SO BAD i was able to use this phone for it. 5.7 hour talk time!!!!! This is unheard of!!! Size style, speaker phone Cam...again WOW. IF anyone at all know if i can somehow conver t htis phone to work for me on VERIZON...PLEASE LET ME KNOW

I just spoke to a Sprint rep at a store near my home, and he stated the phone should be in the stores by Thursday. I believe I will be getting one as soon as they are out!

Does anybody know if it has an alarm, calendar, calculator, to-do list, vibrate, picture ID? None of these are listed on PhoneScoop. Thanks.

I just bought an 8900 and I'm considering the 8920 or other megapixel phone/camera. Does Audiovox have a poor reputation for their camera phones?
It appears the only way to move photos from the 8900 to my computer is via email. Is this true? I'll be taking 20 to 40 pictures a day (I'm a real estate appraiser) and I'll need a better/faster way to get them onto my computer. Any advise is appreciated.

Does anyone know when this phone will be released, I have asked sprint reps and they don't know? Im curious and interested in this phone so I guess Im impatient. Hope someone can help!
Thanks

Any word on price for this one?

Any word on release date?

Can the USB cable be used to download the pictures from the camera? Or do they have to be emailed from the phone (ie pay).
