Re: Um...that's not saying much...
it says a lot to the developers building the apps. It's an OS thing, not an individual phone thing.
Re: iPhone: Beaten! Next Challenge: Blackberry
um...they "can't" sell to all 3 carriers. nooo...they "won't" sell to all 3 carriers.
Re: How to get Yahoo Messenger
go to mm.yahoo.com on your Q web browser for Yahoo Messenger. It's a nice interface if you only want Yahoo IM.
I also heard you can try Agile Messenger in place of IM+, and the Alpha version for WB5 is free. Go to
http://www.agilemobile.com/downloads.html for the download.
Can Hotsync and ActiveSync co-exist?
While I am trying out this Q, I would like to be able to continue using my Tungsten T3. Does anyone know if the two sync programs can co-exist on one laptop? I will be using both heavily with Outlook.
Thanks.
Palm OS apps vs WM 5.0 apps
I am trying my best to like this phone, but I have been using Palm OS since the Palm V came out. I now have a T3 and use the heck out if daily and have invested mucho dollars in apps for it. My goal is to use just one device though.
Has anyone been able to find apps for this thing other than the Downloads page from Handango that was preloaded?
I use alot of personal management type sw, i.e. ...
Re: The Q Cradle - Nice design
It would also be nice if they included a car charger with the phone since the battery life is so poor.
Re: Bluetooth Headset very SLOW and unreliable voice recognition
I have the same headset and also had the E815. What I liked about the combo was that I could just flip open the headset and the phone automatically turned Bluetooth on and I was ready to go. With the Q, I have to go to Bluetooth settings and toggle ON. Has anyone found a different way to do this?
Also, I have not installed ActiveSync yet (need to do so on work laptop tomorrow) so my Contacts is still ...

Re: Keyguard / Keypad Lock ??
Thanks a bunch - this worked :D
Keyguard / Keypad Lock ??
Does anyone know how to lock the keyboard? I have already hit the keys several times, even in the rather bulky Best Buys case.
Re: I got the first LEMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had to turn mine in today (owing it less than 24hrs) for a replacement phone. Mine kept freezing up. and I could not connect to data...I kept getting Login Error.
I will give this the 15 days, but I have a funny feeling that I will be getting a Razr v3m until the next generation Treo P comes out. Rumor has it the antenna is built in and it's smaller than the Q.
I am not happy that the bluetooth ...
Try egrips
I use egrips (www.egrips.com) for my treo 700w and although there is not clip or anything, it is is sure nice with slipery phones.
They have a universal cell phone, but I'm sure if enough people ask for the Q they will start making it.
Re: I got the first LEMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought it was just me...but I think you add me as number 3 on the lemon thing.
Mine has yet to turn on past Verizon logo screen and then just turns off. I am giving it until tomorrow morning on the charger to see if that makes a difference, but after reading this I doon't hold out much hope.
Re: Need Some Help Getting this for $199
I was in the same boat, right down to working for a large corp but no discount on phone, but my contract wasn't up until Nov 2007.
Well, after constant griping and asking for a supervisor, I got "an exception" and they allowed me to get the phone for 299. They still wouldn't do the 199 though. I also got a corp discount on my plan.
Acessories / Skins
Anyone know of a place to buy accessories? I am very interested in a skin also. The cases are real bulky looking.
Re: I just confirmed. $199 for new customers, $299 for existing. WHAT BS!
I'll wait until I get the phone and call back for data support to see what I can get from them. 2000 free sounds a whole lot better that 8 bucks for 100.
Re: I just confirmed. $199 for new customers, $299 for existing. WHAT BS!
Maybe someone should educate Verizon on this plan. The "supervisor" that I spoke with never heard of it. :roll:
Re: I just confirmed. $199 for new customers, $299 for existing. WHAT BS!
I tried this tactic and didn't get far with it. I escalated to a supervisor and got the same story. They interpret the press release to say that it has to be a "new" 2 yr contract, not an existing one. Even though it doesn't say that..."it's implied".
I was able to get the phone at $299 though. They excellerated my 2yr upgrade to give me a $100 discount.
Unfortunatley, they were not able to process the order with the ...
Re: 4 out of 10 words dropped when using headset :x
Thanks for the advice...I just realized that my auto-volume was set to OFF on this phone. We'll see if that helps. However, I have tried 3 different headsets....on all 3 phones.
Keep in mind, Verizon got the 6 out of 10 words test results...basically, confirming the defect.
4 out of 10 words dropped when using headset :x
I am now on my 3rd phone and am still getting this defect. Verizon actually tested my 1st phone and came up with the above results. On the 2nd phone, they didn't even bother to test it, they just gave me a new (refurbished) phone. I have had the 3rd phone for one day now and am already getting feedback from people on the other end that my voice fades out, and this part is new...even when I stop ...
