voyager phone selection or lack of it..

Truth-Seeker

Apr 10, 2008, 3:42 PM
you know I hope verizon stick with coming up with crappy phones every year..if so att would keep its lead over them for many years to come.

i just tested the voyager at a vzw store.. i use the iphone myself and there is no comparasion between the two.. voyager is a big phone with a querty keyboard thats all it is..

average consumer..it is horrible to think that verizon could charge more then 100 dollars for this crappy phone. the web browser.. ha ha. its like the browser on my razr.

bottom line.. verizon, i hope continue to suck with your phones. i hope that every year the gap between vzw and att gets bigger and bigger..

and you get scared so that you have to launch unlimited plans to catch up.

you are a money hungry company ...

maybe if you were smart enough to change the browser view options....


as far as comparing it to the iphone..well they are very different phones I don't really think it is a good comparison. First the iphone is cool and the ui is top notch, But i use voyager for text and email, i have used the iphone..no way i am giving up my keyboard. I also use navigator. I have google maps on my pearl but they are useless when driving real time. Just two of many reasons i would rather carry my voyager.

On a personal note I think it is very sad that you as a cingular customer/employee come trolling in here with your fanboy BS.. Very sad indeed.

Oh, and i have a Moto505 bluetooth fm transmitter in my work car so i use my voyager as a mp3 player/handsfree through the car stereo. I 'couldn't do that on the iphone because of the lack of bluetooth profiles on that phone.

Well you Know its my fault I put a cheap knockoff like the voyager in the same category as the iPhone.
P.s. I just responded to your MSG from my iPhone using the keypad. I have no problem with it perhaps you lack the skills to type in such advanced form. Stay loyal to your tactile keypad. And stay blind to obvious inferior quality phones that you or verizon has to offer. Don't even bother to respond, its the same regurgitated speech over and over again. The iPhone draws a crowd while the only thing voager draws is as my paper weight. Scratch that it doesn't even deserve that.

You must still be seeking the truth because you haven't found it yet. Verizon launched Unlimited Plans as a "hmm let's try this". at&t launched Unlimited Plans as a "OH CRAP!!! they launched that???" And the last time I checked, Verizon has closed the gap year after year. The only reason at&t had more customer growth in the 4th quarter was the 1.2 million customers acquired by the finalization of the Dobson acquisition. Don't deny it...it's true. And congratulations you learned how to type on an iPhone..I'm typing this on my laptop whoopie?

Now there's your truth.

yeahright

the real reason is their dependency on prepaid and resellers, that is the only reason. Quarter after Quarter Verizon posts the best postpaid acts

I've held and operated an iPhone - and by "operated" I mean struggled with it for an hour to no avail. Just because I COULD have spent a lot of time learning how to put up with it's crap doesn't mean I'm about to.

Get your fingers out of your ears and if you want to debate.

sorry i didn't buy it to impress my friends 🙄 I can text on the iphone, as touch goes it is very nice, but when i have to send out emails for work or 100's of text in a day i perfer the keyboard. Plus as i said before, I travel a lot for work, i use my voyager as an mp3 player in my car through bluetooth stereo and navigator a lot, both items not happening on your crowd pleaser.

Is the Iphone browser really that much better than the voyagers? Since it sounds like you use an iphone, if I send you my number, can you mms me a picture of the superior browser? Oh you can't? Maybe go use that voyager to take and send the picture of the "superior" phone.

Ah you brain washed fool . AT&T has more then 70mil customers while vz has 65. I would give you vz try to close the gap year after year but last december they got killed. And they had to launch the unlimited plan not as to try this but holy crap if the trend for december continues verizon would continue to have year over year deficit in retail and else where. So thats why that had to come out with open access. Things at vzw is so dire that their ny retail which was under 1 person now has to be divided in two position.

By the end of this year with launching of 3g iPhone.

Ha ha..

hmm yeah I wonder if the press going to cover the release of the voyager 2 ?

yeahright

go check how many of those are resellers and prepaid. lay down verizon monthly customers vs. at&t.. you might be surprised what you find. If Verizon really only cared only about numbers they ould just whore out a bunch of cheap prepaid products and sell out network space to every company that had an interest like at&t just so they can say they have the most people on the network. By the way where does at&t rank in network quality, customer service and how is churn rate, might check into those as well.

Man trolls just ruin this forum

Your an idiot. The NY region split in two becuase of the fact that were opening up so many stores, so its now ran under two directors.. Same thing happened in southern Cali.. That's called growth moron, that didn't happen because the company is out of control.. Read a business manual or something before posting about it..

I seen you in a lot of forums and nothin but VZW bashing. You talk a lot of smack with out backing anything up. And yes Verizon is another comany that is in it for the money. On what planet do you live?.... one where companies dont care about money and staying in business probably. REAL WORLD DUDE! Man you must have some personal issues with VZW huh.

LOL I've never even thought of that. Good insight.

Btw truthseeker:

at&t may be pledging 3g for the iphone soon, but they said SQUAT about mms capabilities, didn't they?

Any $400 with a camera that can't send picture messages is questionable. It's a JOKE to leave out that ability. No excuse.

Hey Truth Seeker, you are forgetting that Att wireless (defunct) and Cingular where strugling for a long time trying to chatch up with VZW and with a huge gap. Att wireless and cingular had each a little over half of what VZW had. VZW for the longest time had a lead of at least 18 million customers (research. So how did they solve it?, by combining their numbers. And just barely beat VZW, then Verizon closes the gap every year. And then there is churn. Y where Att, cingular, sprint so againts LNP while VZW was just sitting idle and all for LNP, investing millions for an LNP call center? Because when it when live so many people left for verizon. I remember we had lines all through mall in Tracy, CA for days. I had been with them as a part tim...
