Should I upgrade from my V710?

Sorry if this is a revisit for some of you! I am not as big a phone geek as most of you, so I thought I would put it out there. I have been eligible for over a year for the New Every 2, but I don't really see any phones that seem that much better than my V710. The E815 seems just like a slightly updated version of the V710 and doesn't seem worth upgrading to from the V710. I have heard mixed reviews about the Razor (even the new one). Can someone convince me to upgrade my phone? Should I wait for one of the new phones scheduled to come out in the next couple of months? If so, which one. Chocolate? Canary?Any input would be greatly appreciated - I feel an urge for a new phone 😉 but I do really like the V710. Thanks!

Best current phone lg-8300, released within last month. If it does not interest you then wait.

FYI, technically you would had to use your NE2 by now, Verizon does not have to honor it anymore if they choose, but usually still will though.

"If you enrolled in the program on or after 11/25/02, you must take advantage of the New Every Two offer within six months of becoming eligible; otherwise, you may be charged full retail price to upgrade your current handset."

I could see losing the $100 and getting charged upgrade pricing but full retail? 😳 I'm sure that would go over well.

Depends on what you're looking for. What is it about the 710 that's appealing?

I like the features: Bluetooth, Speakerphone, Speaker-Independent Voice Dialing. The camera is really bad though.

I was using a v710 and upgraded to a 8300. The sound of the 8300 is much better due to stereo sound and louder too. Plus it has stereo bluetooth. The outside mp3 buttons are cool, i wish the v710 had them. I do miss my V710, the look, the feel, the size.
