Verizon/Alltel merger question.

Hello all,

I cannot find any info on what is going to happen to Alltel's GSM footprint that they inherited from Western Wireless in 2005. Will Verizon keep it, or is some of the GSM footprint going to be divested as a part of the FCC's requirements to divest 100 markets?

Any info will be most helpful, thanks.

Live Search Mobile, GPS crippled now?

Which PDA or handset phones use this program successfully on the Verizon network, with the GPS on so it provides turn-by-turn directions?

Retrieving pics from a dead phone

When my LG VX8300 finally died last week, it entered a stage where it would technically turn on, but the inside screen is white and empty, it doesn't ring, buttons don't make sound, etc.

(I did experiment and notice I could make a call out, but while the other person could hear me, I couldn't hear them.)

Is there any way to retrieve my photos from this phone? They're not saved to a memory card.

another insurance question...vzw reps

i have a phone that i accidently cracked the screen on. i have equip protection through assurion, but i have to wait till next check to get up enough $$ for the insurance deductible. my g/f gave me an old verizon phone she had laying around that still works...what i want to do is do an esn swap to the phone she gave me as a temp phone. can i still get a replacement for my phone, or will my equip protection on my plan only apply to the phone activated on the acct? i doubt they will replace the phone she gave me, its ancient, and is uninsurable anyways since its a couple years old. i guess a viable solution would be i could swap back to my broken phone when i have the money for the deductible, i mean it still works, sending/recieving call...

Verizon Blackbery Curve Question

Hey Everyone,

I have a VZW Blackberry Curve. I had upgraded it to 4.5.0.77 a few weeks back. Then I got the Storm. After deciding the Storm wasn't for me, I reactivated my Curve. I switched my device through the BB Internet service back to this PIN and ESN. Everything works fine but now I'm not getting html email messages. All emails are coming through, but just not html. Under message options, and email settings, I have both of my email address coming to the phone setup to enable html. Any other suggestions as to what I might try? I have also deleted and readded the email addresses...(Hotmail and Yahoo)...and also resent the service books. I didn't neccessarily think that would do anything, but tried nonetheless.

Thanks in Ad...

Is messanging considered as texting?

I currently have Sprint and was thinking of switching over to Verizon but was wondering one thing.

I do a lot of chatting on AIM and MSN messenger. Does Verizon count this type of messaging as being part of the data plan (internet) or text plan?

I believe some carriers use to count such messaging as texts, so I'm just wondering.

Insurance question?

I have a question on how insurance works. I know you cannot get insurance on a phone that you buy off of ebay or somewhere else. But if I were to buy a phone directly from Motorolla brand new, is it possible to insure the phone??? Verizon no longer sells the V9 however moto's website still sells it. I would like to get one for my wife, however at $400 bucks i want to have insurance on it
