Re: LG Optimus S
My local sprint told me it was delayed from 31-Oct til 7-Nov. They got a shipment of them in today. I'm rocking one now.
Just got mine - Crap screen
I just picked mine up from Sprint like 10 minutes ago. Phone is quick and responsive, sadly, the screen is pretty low quality. Going to give it a go for a few days. If it drives me too crazy, I may take it back. Digging the Android so far though.
Hoping it includes the FM tuner same as Optimus One
just throwing out my wish list....
FM tuner like Optimus One?
Title says it all. Is there a built in FM Tuner similar to the other Optimus?
Re: Poor earpiece sound, Great phonebook.
its not so much the volume as it is the clarity. The sound is just "muddied". I had a v60 a long time ago that had this kidn of sound. it was weird, you could blow in the ear piece and the sound would clear up. I traded that one in on a new one and it worked great. Weird.
btw, meant to mention the fact that the phones external speaker is top ...
Poor earpiece sound, Great phonebook.
I got mine today at Radio Shack at lunch. The phone is really fast. Much better than the T720. The menus are very well done, leaving a "ghost" of the wallpaper behind waht you did last. I like that. ie, if you send an email, you will see ghosted text on the screen until the email is sent. My gripes are with the ear piece. The sound is very bad. My ...
Re: Verizon Online or Retail Stores
both will have at the same time.
Re: If I were a betting man,
THink about Radio Shacks position. This phone which is sure to be a top seller comes out in august according to the press release. Radio shack puts out a flyer once a month. It woudl be crazy for radio shack NOT to put the phone in that flyer for Aug. THeir other options would be to either delay the flyer until the phone is released or put the flyer out at the beginning of hte ...
NE2 Expires after 6 months!!!
if you dont use your new every two credit within 6 mos after you have had your phone for 2 years, you will NOT have this credit anymore. BEfore this phone comes out, you may want to call to make sure your credit is still good (if you have it). Mine was not, the checked my past billing (I'm a very long term Bell Atlantic, er, i mean Verizon Wireless customer and I have had nasty bills) ...
Re: No disrespect to Radio Shack, but...
man, i called verizon yesterday to check on my NE2 credit. Which, by the way, expires 6 months after it is avaiable to you to use. I had to fuss a bit to get mine "turned back on". Anyway, they know the date its coming out. The guy alluded to a few things about that phone but he made it VERY clear that they cant say the date it will be for sale. Its ...
Re: NE2 and others
you can't assign wallpaper type pictures to the outside caller id. But, if the phone rings, and its a contact of yours that you have assigned a picture to, then you will see that contact on the outer display. Its just that the outer display is not real sharp and it doesn't use a whole lot of colors. That makes the picture look kinda bad.
Re: NE2 and others
no NE2 at RadioShack.
Has picture caller id albeit on a 4k display
No clue on BT Headset, check the CeNet review of the different headsets avail during their review. They ranked the Jabra BT250 very highly.
Phone will be out when its out. My guess which is no better, no worse than yours is within two weeks.

Re: Today's Tuesday, anyone live near a VZW Store?
You ever called a verizon store? When I call my local store i get redirected to some regional store that's three hours away. When the 7000 came out, some stores had it, some didn't. Some rumors have gone around that say the phone could be on sale today at VZW. I figured if anyone worked near a VZW store (I dont), and it was convenient, they could go by and check. With all the phonefreaks on ...
Today's Tuesday, anyone live near a VZW Store?
Anybody checked at a local verizon wireless store for availability today? Might be worth checking.
Re: Coming to the U.S.? YES!
Who is going to get this awesome phone... bout time someone made a high end phone that does NOT have a camera. We dont all work in camera-friendly places......

did you not just Read Rich's post?
Re: just called verizon and iam eligable for new phone on aug. 18th
hopefully it will be out first or second week of august, but he can't buy it at the cheap price till 18 AUG. That's what he is saying.

there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Re: Sort Of Off Topic - Free iPod to Complement your v710
It sounds so great! Almost too good to be true! Everybody, quick, lets get rich!
And, while you are enjoying your new ipod, be sure and come to the first cellphone forum you can find and tell us all about it. I know we'd all LOVE to hear about it.
If we took the posts that are actually about the V710 from this forum and put them in a new forum called "the new V710 forum", we'd ...
Re: Sort Of Off Topic - Free iPod to Complement your v710
They have to sign up. They have to provide their credit card to someone. He used AOL as an example. Your buddy would have to purchase AOL, keep it for a bit, then cancel it.

Re: just spoke to a verizon sales rep (like everyone else has)
I am sure the phone will come out as described in moto's specs.
btw, RC51's rule :D
couldn't help it, saw your name figured I'd drop another kind of "moto" reference. I love my bike, but i must admit, my heart has always been with the 916/996 series... those are and forever will be works of art.

Re: Important v710 information...
the 710 dont hurt nobody, its lika an alarm clock going off in the morning.
U.S. Cellular?
its on the main page. Guess Verizon isn't the only ones now.
Re: No Belt Clip?
You mentioned Aug 1 in your post about the transflash. Are you saying the phone shoudl be avail on aug 1 or the transflash should be avail that day... or both!
Thanks for the info.

Re: Hmm 30 more pages to reach the milestone of 200 BEFORE this phone comes out!!
it prolly has to do with your view options. i see 170 also. in my options i have "all messages flat" or whatever checked.

Bluetooth syncing?
I am sure this has been covered a few times here and a few times over at hofo, but I was never real clear on the answer. Is it going to be possible to sync the phones contacts/calendar through the bluetooth connection? I thought i saw that this is a big NO, but when i read here:
"Bluetooth® Wireless Technology
From wireless talking to wireless synching, this phone makes it happen. Just hook up any Bluetooth® compliant accessory and ...
Re: PHONE PRICING IS IN AT VERIZON
brianatverizon is one of the "inside helpers" for this forum. He shares information straight from the horses mouth so to speak. Due to his sources, he probably doesnt read the forum that much becuase he knows that if he hasnt seen nor heard about it, that it is probably bs. That press release was just that, a press release. Those are very often NOT final draft type things. If Brian is seeing 299, then chances ...
Re: Q for VZW employees (about phone releases)
two weeks = Tuesday 8/3 so you are probably assuming pretty correctly.
then again, i forgot who said it, but the guy that went to the moto show said that motorola needed 3 weeks from the word "go" to get the phones from warehouse to store floor. That makes August 10 the more realistic date. But wait a minute.. maybe the press release was chock full of typos and they are really releasing the 810 on ... 8/10 ...
Re: This forum is total junk.
are you sure its not "woooooooooooo- wooo?"
This forum is total junk.
I spent two weeks travelling. One of my last posts noted how the forum was quickly going to crap. Well, i come back two weeks later, the forum has about 30 more pages NONE of which contain ANY information at all. The forum is still overrun by liars and idiots, and as of lately, political fanatics. If you want the latest information on the V710, you MIGHT have more luck at HoFo... but even then, ...
The forum has gone to crap. Lata.
This forum has gone to crap. AnxiousOne, you wandered why the regulars don't post here much anymore lately. Bet you can figure it out.
junk.
Peace.
Re: 710 on VZW Intranet CONFIRMED IT'S THERE IN INFOMANAGER
I just read higher up in the post and saw you told us it was on service side. Is this where it has been all along or is this the "other" side now?

Re: 710 on VZW Intranet CONFIRMED IT'S THERE IN INFOMANAGER
is that the WDTS side or whatever or is it on the Customer side?

Re: V710 on Circuit City Planogram
Do these planograms come from Verizon or Motorola?
advertising doesn't mean anything...
I want this phone BAD. Personally, i really thought it would be available today (7/10). Well, of course, it isn't. Anyway, checking out HoFo, i came across this link:
http://chicagobusiness.com/cgi-bin/n ews.pl?id=13120
it mostly speaks of motos delays. At the end of it, i get the impression that this ad campaign has been in planning for some time. The article acts like this is completely up to Verizon. I further get the impression that this phone was ...
Re: Advertising
dont blame you for the secrecy of the location. especially after the straightfool incident. If you get a shot, great! if not, oky doke. Just keep any cool information coming.
J~
Re: Advertising
two things:
is this the same store that you spoke of having the phones earlier?
is there any way you could snap a shot of the sign... i'd love to see it. Not that I doubt you, just, i would get a nice warm fuzzy from it.

Chance of cancellation of the V710
I really hate not having a good date to shoot for anymore. The "in" folks were giving us days to shoot for. Not anymore. Seems when this phone comes out truly is anyone's guess. I was looking forward to the 9900 also, but, from the "in" folks, that phone has been axed. Is there any real chance of this phone getting axed?
