Has any body got any info on when this phone is coming out.
thanks
...
november 20th only 19 more days!
...
i can't wait, do you know by any chance what the full retail on one of these things is going to be?
i looked in previouse posts but everybody had a different answer, you are the only person that sounds confident.
...
no sorry don't have any info that yet. plenty of pics, docs on programming, and features but the eguide listing isn't complete and doesn't have pricing in it just yet
...
Is the 11/20 just for online sales or will it be in stores also? TY
...
that's what we have listed as the latest launch date. it will most likely be the internet date (thats what it has been for most phones in the past) and then stores a few days later. I will post more as I find out more.
...
will the 9900 have pda capabilities? I have a treo now, but i'm VERY interested in the size, look and convience of the 9900. any and all information given will be greatly appreciated.
...
It will be phone platform not a pda, it will have a calender, wireless sync for email, 2mp camera, and regular phone ui. (well flash i am sure)but not a full function pda
...
that'll be a good name. I'm surprised the 8600 didn't get a nickname. Seems to be working great for manu's. Can't figure out what the hell people are talking about when they ask about Nokias.
...
Besides the thinner size and a 2meg camera, what are some other major changes from the 9800 to the 9900?
...
stereo bluetooth, and maybe mediaflo( don't hold your breath on that one) mini sd will change to micro and hopefully the mp3 player will function more like the choco than the 8100/8300/9800.
...
other than what was already mentioned, the battery is gonna have a longer life. as far as the mp3 player goes, it's going to feature: "Music Library - songs are auto organized by artist, genre, and album"
sounds like the chocolate. by the way: go to the vzw forums on www.howardforums.com they have a link to the official spec sheet release. i have one printed out on my counter right now ๐
...
man! I just wsih it would hurry up and get here! I always wanted a 9800 it was just to damn big, this thing is going to kick ass! I just hope it isn't $400
...
oh you know it's gonna be that expensive. at LEAST. i like the phone and all but i still think i'm gonna hold out for the samsung u710. now THAT phone is gonna kick some serious ass!!
...
You think it will launch at 399? I am hoping it is more around 300 with contract, The Q isn't even close to the $400 mark. I guess we will see, as long is it less then 400 I will it first day!
...
I highly doubt it will retail at 399.99 with a two yr contract. The sam9900 is about that price in SLOWLY going down but that phone will still cost more than the lg 9900.
Im sure the 9900 will retail with a two yr contract around 299.99, than will go down in a month or so. Itll take over the 9800 and probably be priced around that one.
...
that is what i am hoping. 299!

๐คจ The samsung a990 has been $349.99 with a 2 year agreement ever since it came out
...
Great info, but when available either online or at retail store?
...
yeah it thinner but still looks like hell, it was beat with an ugly stick, verizon might be putting out more phones but they still suck, especially this one. There is nothing special here
...
have you actually seen or held one, very slick, especially if your into texting. Don't be a hater
...
I'm not hating just stating fact, take the waterproof phone...here was an opportunity for verizon to put out a cool phone but they leave it that butt ugly color, and no bluetooth, etc...they just drop the ball on thier phones, this banana phone would looked sleek as hell if they made it all black but no verizon is to stupid for that.
...
i saw the original lg model, it was also siver/black, i will say it is much better in person than the pictures give it justice.
...
๐คจ Um, you do understand that Verizon doesn't make the phones, right?
...
Are u serious Verizon doesnt make the phones....People are ingnorant to this fact. For some reason customers cant understand that we provide the service and not the equipment.
...
BS verizon can have whatever they want, of course they don't make the phones but they can request how they want them, all they have to do is tell LG we want to class this thing up give it to us in all black, not that hard stop lying to people on here
...
if you are going to say that the 9900 is not slick cause its not black then youre an idiot...sorry but true...who cares...
...
If it was black you would bitch about that to. It seems like that is all you ever do. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean a lot of other people don't. have you seen one in person. No ok thats what I thought, it looks better than what the pics actually show.
...
Since when is YOUR opinion fact... ๐คจ ๐คจ ๐คจ
Just because you dont like a phone doesnt make it ugly!
I personally think it wouldve been better in black too but some ppl dont like all-black phones...
Oh well, the LG 8600 looks promising...
...
every carrier has one or two very cool phones verizon has squat, look at the lame choco phone omg could there possibly be an uglier phone on this planet, and then they make a white one
...
Going to assume this is sarcasim?
...
No
I hope you are not going to tell me the choco is a cool phone
...
Actually, it is pretty cool. Stop drinkin' the haterade.
...
You guys are in denial I wonder sometimes about the fanboys in here who think verizon is all that, have any of you even tried another carrier? or go into their stores and look at the phones? all verizon phones have the same lame look and I'm not even hatin on the UI.. why does Sprint put out good CDMA phone and verizon puts out only the crappy ones.
...
Yawn, we've all heard this before. The cry o' the hater is always, "You're in denial. You're all fanboys. I have the only true knowledge. Think like me! Waaah waaah waaaah, why won't you think like me?" Blah. ๐
Yeah, I've tried other carriers, ace. Why do you think I'm with Verizon now? Duh.
...
name me a good PHONE from another carrier and tell me whats so GOOD and COOL and UNCRAPPY about it. lets see you put your money where your mouth is.
...
Nokia 6256i, 2megapixel slider with video ringtones, full bluetooth, 3.5 hours talk time, tri mode, nokia interface, fm radio, music player/video player support for mp3 and mgpeg4.
I just always wanted this phone, the last great cdma nokia before the pantech sellout and Verizon passed on it ๐
Not agreeing with platypus, You just said name a phone verizon doesn't have that you want and why. Uncrippled bluetooth, nokia ui, 2 megapixel slider with fm radio/video player/mp3 exapndable memory. ๐ข ๐ข ๐ข ๐ข
Oh well, bring on the 9900!!!!
...
i think you mean Nokia 6265i
...
Nokia model numbers are the most confusing out of any manufacturer IMO.
...

...

Technically the Nokia 6256i (which I have) has most of the things you list, only major deficiency is no 2 MP camera (the camera it doe...
(continues)
...
Yeah i looked at that phone, but wanted a better camera and the phone is ugly imo, reminds me of a moto 720 or something. The slider that got shot down was slick looking

The 6256 is a brick, but its a GOOOOD brick. ๐
However, some folks choose on looks over everything else... look at how well the RAZR sells.
...
easy answer as to why phones arent black. EASY TO FIND!!!
just think of the trends now a days, women with their huge purses, if it was all black women would be hard pressed to find an all black phone in the black hole they call their purse. there are many factors as to why verizon "do what they do."
chill out, go to your own forum and wonder why your cell service sucks, but you have the coolest phone the intranet has EVAR seen!!
weaksauce ๐

To bad they didn't put some thought into this.
