Verizon's PDA's vs. Sprint's PDA's

Verizon's PDA/Smartphones don't allow Bluetooth OBEX, while Sprint Does. Sprint disallows MMS on their PDA/Smartphones, but Verizon doesn't. Which is more important to you?

For me voice quality is my first priority, so verizon wins there. I believe the Q is considered a smart phone, which allows OBEX, right?

Yeah; cause what the hell good is it if you can send pics via bluetooth, but not in a message?

Oh here is for phones. Did you know if you had a mobile office kit for say...the lg8700 you will get headset,stereo bluetooth, calender, phonebook, pic, print through bluetooth, and soe other crap. They basically are just blocking ringtones and crap liek that on phones now

wrong, Verizon doesn't disable OBEX on the PDAs. My i730's Bluetooth is fully functional.

Sprint beats verizon hands down. ive had both. Problem with verizon's pda's lack of multimedia no instant messaging no msn messenger no yahoo messenger no aol messenger unless you instal some 3rd party program. Verizon pda's dont even have VCAST and little but still important verizon pda's come with 1ear piece headset. While Sprint does have MMS on my treo 700p i can send anything pics vids bluetooth music bluetooth pics bluetooth apps with "Zlauncher installed" With sprint there is Sprint TV, there's preinstalled messengers of all kinds And there is no download limit. i can download files 20mb or more right to my phone wirelessly...So sprint wins HANDS DOWN oh yeah almost forgot the best part...WITH SPRINT I DO ALL THIS FOR 15BUKS!!!

And I agree with you. Here's my problems though.

a) I am already with Verizon
b) Sprint CS sucks
c) Most everbody I know is IN and I only know 2 people with Sprint.

But most PDAs come with a stereo headset.

Well im in Miami Florida and I was told Verizon was pretty good in the southeast..and sprint supposedly in the California West...But im not bad mouthing Verizon..you've got great repetitive commercials..that every now and then comes up with something new every now and then…like your free in calling plans or your now updated unlimited textin plans…Things like that…things that sprint has been offering for about 10yrs now..i bet the next commercial might be Free incoming calls…Here's a slogan for verizon…."Verizon…What will they COPY next…?"

Verizon offered the first phone with the external display. Is Sprint copying Verizon because they have the Sanyo 8400 which has an external display? No, of course not! And I wouldn't call unlim text plans copying either because every single other carrier has them too.
