Black Moto Q Question?

Hey guys,

I just recently got the black Q, overall I think its a great phone for me. Before having the black Q I used my enV. And where I work, I would get full reception. I work in the first floor of a Hospital and close to the main entrance. after activating my black Q on my line I dont even get 1 bar of reception at work. I dont know why am getting that. Also, were i live theres excellent reception with around 3 Verizon Towers near.

Now is this cause by the black Q or the hospital equipment. Also, i heard great reviews about this phone with great reception. Does anyone on here know why I dont even get full bars like my enV? Has anyone experience this before with their Q?

Thanks,
Eddy4347

Samsung SHC-u620 vs LG VX8600

I know, I know... one is a slider and the other a flip phone, but is anyone here knowledgable enough on these phones to say whether or not the u620 would cut it compared to the VX8600? I would like to try out a slider for my new phone but I want to make sure it's going to be a capable enough of a phone. The reason for this particular comparison is that I previously shopping for a VX8600. The only advantage it has over the 8600 that I can think of is a real speakerphone. I'm not gonna be using the TV function but I don't have much a selection when it comes to slider phones.

Also, I think it's been covered that it's still possible to create your own ring tones, but is this true with the Samsung phone(s)? I noticed people complaining on anot...

lg9900

Quick Question, I am guessing nobody knows but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Will the new 9900 coming out fix a couple of the original 9900 shortcomings?

Bluetooth 2.0 maybe this time?
Send 2mp Pictures this time?

Oh and I saw something about the tv service, seems like a long shot but hey that would be cool.

Discount

Hi everyone,
I currently have a 25% discount on my monthly access through my employer. But my HR manager said that it also applies to accessories too. Is this true? If so, 1. can the discount also be used to purchase a cell phone (or what else does it apply to), and 2. how do I go about using the discount when I purchase accessories for the phone?

Thanks!

Blackberry general questions

Ok bare with me on this. I did search before I posted but still didn't find what I was looking for in answers.

Ok I have never gotten a blackberry of any kind and was thinking of buying one. Which one I don't go out of the US. IS the older ones you can get for under $50.00 on Ebay not good or should I just go get the 8703?

I have read about how they are great for email and phone and that was it??

What I want is a simple to use stable pda that I can get emails from different email accounts, search the web when needed. And have good phone reception with good ear volume since I am hard of hearing.

I have tried the Q and that was locking up not stable same as the Treo's. I know not e...

9900 Glitch?

Hey I have an enV that I think may have a glitch. Now I have had this enV for about 2 months with no problem, but I think there might be a glitch... When I am in a text message and the phone is open to the full keyboard and I hit the sym button and then the 4/$ key to do the dollar sign it comes up with $179 automatically. Does anyone have any insight on this issue? Any help will be much appreciated!

Another lawsuit: Nokia moves to spoil BREW, MediaFLO parties

By Phil Carson

Story posted: June 11, 2007 - 1:34 pm EDT

If you were wondering whether Nokia Corp. would take advantage of last week’s potentially bruising decision by the U.S. International Trade Commission to ban new 3G handsets bearing Qualcomm Inc.’s chips, this news just in:

Nokia filed countersuits against Qualcomm in the Eastern District of Texas court, alleging that Qualcomm uses six Nokia patents in its MediaFLO and BREW technologies. Nokia seeks damages and injunctive relief in its counter-assertions to a suit originally filed in that court by Qualcomm on April 2.

“Nokia is confident that the Qualcomm patents are invalid … based on the alleged inventions having been patented or published by other companies, including...

2-year pricing

Hi everyone,
I was wondering, I have two lines (family shareplan) that is out of contract. I want to use my NE2 to get an enV soon, but I also know that the second line will be eligible for the two-year discounted pricing.
So my question is, if I don't upgrade the second line's handset right now, will I still be able to upgrade it after a few months with the discounted pricing (since I'm not upgrading it right now)?

And since I'm signing a new 2-year contract when I upgrade my primary handset, will I have to sign another 2-year contract from the date of when the second line was upgraded? Or will it be from the original date (which will probably be next month)?
Thanks!

WM6 Treo? Anytime Soon?

Just wondering if anyone knows of a WM6 Treo on the way to Verizon...

With all the Treo releases lately and the recent release of WM6 you'd think a combination of the two would be right around the corner, but I have yet to hear anything on that.

Anyone else?

Buying used i730 - is ESN good?

I want to check out the i730, I haven't found any stores near me that still has them in stock, but I found a person selling one in great condition.

He says he bought the phone new 18 mos ago, but had to switch carriers w/ a new employer and needed a GSM phone that worked overseas.

How can I tell him to find out the ESN number, so I can check it being good w/ Verison. Once I have the ESN, what do I do, just call Verizon 611 from my curent phone and ask them to check the ESN?
