Is VZN Phone Selection a Little Stale?

It seems that several other carriers are coming out with exciting phones/smartphones yet nothing appears on the horizon for Verizon.

The most recent releases by VZN seem almost stale. Is there anything of interested that will hit the stores / web soon for this carrier?

WTF does stale mean? You have the LG 9900, Chocolate, 8600, Moto KRZR and Q, Samsung a990, affordable bluetooth phones like the samsung a870 and lg 5300. The Motorola V325i is actually a pimp phone. It's the new workhorse for Verizon. Tri-Mode with bluetooth and a decent camera.

I really think that you people need to start to open your freakin eyes and stop listening to your friends and what they say. Form your own o...

Apparently you don't sell their service. That's ok I will excuse you for your ignorance. 😉

No I don't sell their service I'm a customer looking at some pretty outdated phones or phones that have little bling.

I had the Q it was ok at best Samsung's newer smart phones are far more advanced. The Blackberry VZN carries is from the year 1 bc. The RZR and KRZR are both quite dull. The new 9900 is a one ton brick.

The only phone of some interest is the Chocolate yet it's follow up is mind numbing when it comes to design. Also the Chocolate's battery life is absolutely terrible and you cannot use it with subscription services.

Peace

Well I had a nice long rant but I lost it, fortunately for you. I love one track minds. Sell Cingular and T-Mobile and Verizon for 1 week each and y...

Smaller isn't always better. The Q sucks. I sent that phone in twice in a week. I think that the 700w is the best thing (for now, anyway) that Verizon has.

I disagree, no bandwagon to jump off of. Point blank, the UI is killing creativity and innovation. Brew is horrible imho, and on top of it all bluetooth is crippled.

I mean I guess it could be worse.

I think Verizon is a great company, but there phones are not there strong point by any means.

I guess it sucks when mommy and daddy are paying the bills and you can't get your own phone service because your only 16. Be glad you don't have a Migo.


BTW the 9900 is not a 1 ton brick. But just out curiousity if you could pick any phone from any carrier, what would it be?

I would pick the Korean version of the new HTC Athena. here is the link
