My NE2 is here and I can get the 8100 now. Should I get the 8100 now or wait on the samsung a970 to come out.

that 970 looks incredible, question will be release date and price! You might be waiting a long time after verizon keeps pushing back release date, then find out the phone is 300 bucks! It's a gamble! Plus there will always be something better coming out.

If you're in the market for a phone today, get the best technology available today. The future will ALWAYS offer newer and greater things!! When the 970 is introduced, there will be something right behind it waiting to be introduced, and so on, and so on, and so on!!! 🤣

The battery life of the 970 relative to the 8100 (as listed by Phone Scoop AND if true) is incredible, but you're paying for it in weight (5.07 vs 4.16, and if you don't think that's a lot, I notice the difference between my 8100 and my son's 7000 which lists at 3.8😎.

WEight?? I could live with a little extra weight, fuctional mp3, 2 megapixel camera with OPTICAL ZOOM, and a cmocorder mode! That phone is going to be tight, but i am betting it is going to cost a bit more than these current evdo phones and will probably get pushed back and back by verizon. I will stick with my 8100 for now but might have to ebay they sucker in six months and pick the samsung up!

Too right nizzle. You've got to consider all that you've got in that one tiny little package. If you were to carry around a phone, an mp3 player and a video camera, then I think it would weigh more than what this phone will. 🙄 It will be mine. Oh yes... 😈

Keep in mind that the 8100 said it was going to have a functional MP3 player BEFORE it was released. It also was supposed to have 512MB.

It is appearing, based on my conversations with Verizon, that LG, Motorola, etc make the phones, but Verizon does the software. That would explain an awful lot. It would also explain their plan to moving to a standard interface.
