Motorola V600
v600 being discontinued?
I've been hearing some rumours that the v600 is going to be discontinued by cingular. anyone know if this is true? Its already unavailable in some zip codes so it looks like it has some juice to it. On the cingular website the v600 is not available in most of the Ny zipcodes (12180 being an example). Who knows anything about this?

I know the phone has been pulled off Cingular's web page in Louisiana. Cingular's customer service and their local stores deny it being recalled. It is still being sold in the retail stores.
It is an excellent phone.

The V600 is discontinued. The independent Cingular stores are still selling off the inventory. The corporate store have pulled them from display. You can get one if you ask. There is a software problem with the phone. Cingular will not confirm, but customer service reps from MOTO are saying so.

If you are a Cingular V600 customer, call 800.201.6235
If you are part of the recall (most likely you will be), they will ship out a V400 and you must ship your V600 in within 14 days of receiving the V400
You will get your phone back sometime in September
The phones are going to get new hardware in the area of antenna/reception. It is not clear if we will see the Motorola V600 back in new-activation action from Cingu
