It's easy. Check your software by (with the flip open) pressing Menu, then go to Settings & Tools, Phone Info, SW/HW Version, and look underneath [SW Version]. You probably have V07.

You can upgrade to the new V11 software easily and free by walking into any Verizon Wireless corporate location and asking them to flash your phone.

Beware though, all your ringtones, games, and applications WILL be completely DELETED. Before you flash the phone make sure that you write down everything you have ever downloaded from Get It Now (now Media Center). Verizon will tell you to re-download any and all applications to the device and then call their customer service line (800-922-0204) and have one of their agents view your download history, see t...

Thanks for your reply! It was very very informative. I really am torn whether or not to upgrade but it sounds like I should.

What are the specific positives of the upgrade? What is new?

I also hear that someone had the upgrade done and then when they tried to pair it with their car bluetooth, it would not work any longer. Your thoughts?

Oh, and as far as the car bluetooth thing. At least me personally...I've never experienced any of that. I don't have bluetooth actually built-in to my vehicle, but I do have a Venturi Bluetooth/FM Transmitter that allows me to bluetooth all of my calls and music through my car...and that works flawlessly. Sure the audio isn't exactly CD quality, but it's just as good as any radio station.

My bluetooth in general, (Venturi, HS850, LG HBS-200 headphones) all have improved their performance since my upgrade. Before, I would often have to turn my Voyager completely off and back on again just to get a device to pair. Since the upgrade, I haven't had to do that once.
