is it so much to ask for? I'm looking for a phone for use on vzw (for coverage reasons) with push to talk (because i want it 😉 ) and bluetooth (for use with a professional install car kit) and a good sized screen (the v265 screen is too small). i don't care about a camera as i don't use it often enough. any reps out there who have some good insight on whats coming out in the near future?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think VZW has any kind of PTT svc available. This means that you're out of luck. 😕

Unfortunately, VZW, like other CDMA carriers, is rather thin on BT-enabled phones. This is an area that the GSM carriers have them beat on. Don't get me wrong - I'm not trying to start another stupid GSM vs. CDMA debate. This is apparent when comparing available handsets for various carriers.
I agree 100% The phgone selection for GSM is much better.CDMA is getting better with features. I really like the vx8100 that is coming out. I personally have a Nokia 6230 from Cingular and love it. I don't use the bluetooth though. It is a nice feature to have especially if you use a headset a lot or like to transfer stuff to your comp.

I like the SE s710a from Cingular.... 😎
Now that is a nice piece of equipment. Do you own one? I have been looking into gretting one but I heard they are back ordered at least in Cali. I have seen mixed reviews from the forum as well 😕
There's mixed reviews on every single frickin' phone on this website. Two people will take one feature - one says its great & the other says its horrible. I think we all have to form our own opinions for the most part. I've practically LIVED in the s710a forum for the last 2 months. There's a lot more positive feedback than negative. Some of the negative is just user ignorance too. Others just have too-high standards.

Yeah I know what you mean. 🙄
btw, i dont think that gsm has come out with any ptt yet. i know that many phones are coming out with ptt on gsm, but as far as i know, no service providers in the u.s.

You're right about that, but I have heard rumblings that Cingular is going to try to start offering it later in 2005. *unconfirmed rumor not to be misconstrued as fact*
The 6230 is pretty cool. I just don't like that center selection button. Too often when I try to "select" I end up pushing "up" or "down".
