Motorola E815 / E816 Hollywood
Could be pushed back
I'm an employee at Qualcomm. When I saw that the E815 was coming out on 6/27, I e-mailed my corporate Verizon rep. for Qualcomm and told him I wanted to purchase it. He then wrote back it's scheduled to come out 6/27, but it might possibly be pushed back.

There are some reports of stores getting 3300, 5200, 8100 and e815 dummy phones today. Earlier this week, there were reports of shipments going to warehouses.
Seems to be yet another reason why June 27th is looking more and more like a solid release date, even for the 8100. Time will tell.
...
Read between the lines, people. It's obvious that mchou is a spy sent here by LG to thwart the E815's anticipation. Do not listen to these outlandish claims. The E815 will be available by July 1st.
...
Good news on the release date of the E815. Hope you are right.
Which phone (assuming they both become available around 6/27) do you prefer--- the E815 or the VX8100?? Reasons why??????
Thanks

the e815 isn't on verizon's latest (as of 6-10) approved handset litsing. The vx8100 and samsung i730 are though.
...
Thanks for your response. Still not sure which phone is the better one- the e815 or the vx 8100. What is your advise? I had thought the e815 was going to be available before the vx 8100 but obviously, from your response, I must have been wrong. What does it mean that the Vx 8100 is on the "approved handset listing" as of 6-10. Does that mean it is in the warehouse and soon to be available for purchase????
Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks. 🙂
Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks. 🙂

I too am waiting for the VX-8100. I hear that the phone will be out at the end of June beginning of July 2005. Don't know how true this is. Wish I knew for sure.
Have you found out what the approved handset listing as of 6/10 means?
I am holding out for this phone..
Thanks,

The most recent word on the VX8100 was that on June 27th Verizon was supposed to be making a big announcement on a new plan and a release of both the VX8100 and the E815 but from what you said it appears the E815 will be out first.
I have the new hands free Motorola speaker ordered ( I have the web site if you need it) but I have no idea what the "approved handset listing as of 6/10 means".

sorry hit the "submit" button by accident.
I think the "approved handset listing" might be the same as the FCC's approved handset list that comes out..in which case the E815 was approved back in January already.

Think you are correct. However, on the same thread that we are on it seems that someone posted a remark on the E815 that it might be delayed beyond 6/27. I do understand that the VX 8100 has already been shipped to the Verizon warehouses. But, I am still undecided as to which phone I want.

In my opinion, it comes down to 2 things:
1. Which menu/software setup you like better.
2. Which phone you like the appearance of better (cosmetics).
Both phones have the same capabilities exactly. Both have EVDO, Bluetooth, expandable memory, etc.
The LG Menu is more user friendly. The Motorola will be very similar to the V710 (nice, but not as user friendly as the LG's).

Thanks for your in-put. I do prefer LG and have had good luck with two previous LG phones. Only hesitation was because of the longer battery life in the E815. Someone wrote a thread on HOFO that the E815 had better styling.??????

The E815 will probably use the same battery as the RAZR, and that one lasts forever (at least the one I have). Styling simply means the appearance of the phone. I agree that the 815 looks better (has better styling) than the 8100, but it is all in what you like.
I can say that my battery on my VX8000 is horrible, so the 8100 and the 815 have got to be better than the 8000. But I tend to feel that LG's are more reliable and better built (just m...

Yes, I agree. Only problem now is I just got off the phone with Verizon and they have no information on either phone. I thought June 27th was going to be the release date for both. Guess I will have to wait it out and see what happens. In the meantime, my LG VX4400 is fine but I would like blue tooth.
...
VZW will have "no information" until the day they come out. I am not saying that the 27th is correct, but I know that VZW will never divulge a release date.
...
Thanks again! If you here anything specific as far as a release date on either phone please let me know.

Qualcomm has zero knowledge of the release schedule of Verizon.
