LG + Microsoft = Sweet!

http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/11/lg-finally- ... »

A phone similar to the Ke850 with Windows Mobile 6? Sounds like Apple is getting even more competition.

I am really looking forward to all these new LG phones comming out.

Vcast mobile TV March 1st??????

www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/10/vcast-tv-la unch-tentatively-set-for-march-1/

well Im not surprised, since the phone comes out that same day, the samsung u620s. The pricing goes from 13 bucks to 15 bucks, not counting regular vcast, which theyll add to the 15 dollar tv package for an additional ten clams. thats a 5 buck reprieve. yay. or yawn, rather... but the tv thing sounds great.

a lot of people are already spouting that the channel lineup needs to be beefed up. I agree, but lheres the scoop. No one knows how the service will be embraced by the public. So the initial partner networks are the big dogs that can afford the loss if it flops.

there are 24 expected cities covered at launch, according to engadgetmobile.com. And...

Get a txt alert before you go over your minutes...

I am a employee at Verizon Wireless at one of the call center and just came across a site created by a few Cornell University students. It allows customers to download a program that resides in your system tray and alerts you via txt or email that you are at a set amount of minutes that you enter to let you know before you go over on your minutes on your price plan. I have calls all the time asking me if there is any way that we can alert them if they are about to go over on their minutes and I hate just telling them to do #MIN all the time on their cell phones because I wish there was another way, an easier way. Now there seems to be a way with this program. I just downloaded the program but I'm having issues with it logging in. Although we...

Samsung U740 Speakers ?

This phone doesn't have outside speakers like my Samsung A930. If you are using the speakers with the flap closed how does the phone sound?

I can play music or use the speaker phone on the A930 with the flap closed and the speakers are loud.

Customer Service Experience

Well guess what? I have a good experience to report.

I recently dropped and shattered my T Mobile Blackberry which meant I had to get it replaced. My administrative assistant suggested I take the Blackberry from Jimmy Joe, the guy who quit to take another job. Not being thrilled about that and knowing that Jimmy was in essence a slob, I resisted. She won. I have Jimmy's 7103e with its severely scratched screen and very unreliable shift button and sticky keys.

Today it became intolerable and I went into a VZW company store. They took one look at it and commented my account, had me call Customer Care and I now have a FRU winging its way to me at no cost.
That to me is priceless great customer care.
A lot of people in here lik...

Samsung 740........what a joke

Just saw it at the Verizon store. Neat phone but the A930 gold BS is a joke.....who the hell would walk around with a phone that looks like that? Unless you are a gang banger or a pimp and wanna hang it from your neck. That is sad Verizon....wake the hell up!

Customer Service Issue

After waiting for months for the Treo 700WX to come out I finally relented to my family and renewed my family share plan with Verizon about 4 weeks ago. We have 3 lines, my wife and son got a Razr and I got the free 325i. A few days before my 15 day return period was up I called a Verizon customer service rep and asked if I should return the free phone I just purchased so I could get the the Treo 700wx when it came out or if I could hold onto to the free phone until the 700wx came out. The Verizon rep said that I didn’t need to return the 325i and she would make a note on my account so I could get the Treo 700WX at the discounted price when it eventually came out. Great. I was very happy and didn’t bother to return the 325 because of this co...

Treo 700WX Questions

I currently have the 650 and it has been acting a bit crazy for the last couple months. I am eligible for an upgrade but am unsure of what to do. I hear the 700WX is the way to go but I wonder if there is anyone out there who has one already that can answer a couple Q's for me? Here we go...

1) Have they improved the bluetooth at all on this model? Is there still a 3 second delay for call transfer unless you use the "wakeup" feature on your earpiece?
2) I obviously am using the Palm OS right now, is the OS in this model stable? What are the major differences from Palm to Windows on this model?
3) I am a mortgage professional and I use software on my phone right now that serves as a loan tracker and calculator, is there a version fo...

New Verizon contract??? HELP

Hi...
On the VZW.com my account section... it shows that after 22 months, I can upgrade my phone... I'm nearing that time now and I have a few questions

1. Does this mean I can go and purchase a new 2yr contract to get better phones? or do I have to finish out the 2 year until April?... it's very misleading... this 22mo count.

2. I know on this website it lists places like wirefly.com as a place to purchase phones.. Is that a good choice? or is it better to purchase in-store? I'm looking to buy a family plan with 3 phones on the contract.. wondering where the best deals are.

3. Will I be able to keep my old number? (as well as the other 2 phones on the family plan?)

Thank you!
