Hey,
I am in the process of purchasing a new VX6700 and i have never had a smart phone. I have gone to the verizon store and played with it and it is pretty cool. Currently i have a V710 and carry a Palm Zire 71 and i love the idea of putting them . Now the few questions i have are as follows:
1. This has wifi and if you are a person who does not need instant e-mail acess can you survive with out getting the data plan.
2. I noticed that when you turn the phone from normal to landscape it is pretty slow transaction. Is there a way to fix that?
3. Now i know this has a mini SD card holder and wat is the higest amount of memory you can get?
4. If you buy Micorsoft voice command does that work on this phone?
well i think this a...

1. I use the "pay as you go plan" for data as I don't have to access email that often. Works out pretty well.
2. Check the suggested reg edits thread, there is one there that will help with this (although I don't find it all that slow).
3. I put a 512 Mbyte in mind which is plenty "for now". I believe the biggest made right now is 2 Gbyte. Surely bigger to come.
4. Microsoft Voice Command most certainly works on this phone and works well. One thing though, it is not activated by the multi function button on a BT headset, you have to use it through the phone itself. Once the call has begun, it does then automatically switch over to the BT headset. There is a hack that apparently works around this but the quality of how well ...

1. If you are not planning on getting the data plan, I would not access EVDO and would change the #777 number which it dials when accessing Internet Explorer. You know Kilobytes add up VERY quickly over bandwidth and could get very expensive if you don't have a unlimited data plan. However, if your only intention is to use the WI-FI, then you don't need the data plan. WI-FI is disabled when you use the phone unless you hack the reg edit which will allow you to access both together.
2. I am sure this is also included in the reg edit post.
3. Right now, 2 GB mini SD is the largest.
4. I am also looking into the right Voice software and BT headset combo. I heard Voice Command works great but I would Google it and read reviews on differ...
