v265 vs Audiovox 8910/9900?

I qualify for NE2 and am debating between the v265 and Audiovox 8910/9900. The attractions for me to the v265 are the price (now that it is has been revealed), the GPS capability, and the camera. I've read at least one post saying the camera doesn't work so well. How about the GPS location feature? How does that actually work? Does it require a data subscription? Is it fast? I'm a big Mot fan and would like to stay with it. I also have the 270c and 2868 accessories, so presuming the v265 maintains at least the 270c line (charging connectors) I'll be ok.

If neither the GPS nor camera are that great, I'll likely go with the Audiovox and test it, as I've heard its camera is decent.

Any idea when the v265 will hit the Bos...

i don't know...its not apple vs apple...more like pickle vs pickle.l..i don't like either make
i'm an lg and samsung fan. 265 screen was very dull...but it is a small phone, very lightweight
as far as the gps...thats for E911 location...dial 911 and you can be tracked if necessary(my 4400 goes into 'emergency mode')

In this case, the v265 goes beyond the E911 service and actually can provide directions.
