Opera Web Browser

I saw on Opera's website that they have a Web browser for mobile phones to view full web pages. Has anyone tried downloading this or uploading it to their VZW phone?

I use Opera on my PDA since pocket IE that comes with Windows PDAs isn't JAVA suported.

Stupid Question

Do other carriers have BREW like apps like VZW where u can download apps from the phone? I understand that they probably don't use the BREW platform.

If so, how do the apps compare to VZW ones?

Grandfathered Plans

Who here has an old no longer offered calling plan that they don't want to get rid of? What is it and why are you keeping it?

The one with the oldest plan gets one million bonus points.

FYI In most cases you can tell what the birth date of your plan is by whats in your calling plan description. It will say something like America's choice 0504 meaning its birthday was 05/2004

HELP I Need the BLACK Q But...

Hey all. I am somewhat new to VZN. I've been a customer about 6 months. I really want to get the black Q however like everyone I don't want to pay full price. I don't even mind paying the $199. but I cannot renew my contract as I am 18 months away and it is through the company I work with.

Any suggestions on how to go about getting the black Q for the $199.?

Samsung i830 issues

Just wondering if anyone ever ran into this situation:

Customer had an i830. Went to Germany, worked fine for voice, no data could be gotten, data support tried to fix it, couldn't. Came back to the US and it's not working in CDMA mode. It will never acquire a signal even with soft reset, hard reset, flight mode on/off, etc. Basically she got a replacement from data support. The replacement she gets does the same exact thing, which is quite strange... so from here is it the handset or something wrong in the system causing her to have all these issues, and what's the fix?

Bluetooth Car Kit Compatibility

Why does the Verizon car kit compatibility list keep getting shorter?

For example, the V710 and it's compatibility with BMW was solved years ago. Many of the newer BT phones, like the LG Chocolate still don't work with BMW; the Motorola Q is the only phone that works with a Lexus.

Why is Verizon the only retailer that needs to publish a list like this:

Why do I come here?

Why do I even bother visiting this thread anymore? Its just people complaining about the UI, their phone that THEY broke, their bill that THEY went over on minutes, or how much they love their E815. This used to be such an informative site that gave great information and insight into products and services. Oh well, Merry Christmas anyway.

Dual Mode CDMA / GSM phone made easy

Interesting article:[PCS Intel]

It’s prepping Samsung’s W531. It’s a CDMA phone with a GSM SIM slot, a dual-class badboy, like a half-mage/half-paladin. It’s not the first such phone from Sprint, indeed the A790, which also sports GSM compatibility, is being replaced by this brash upstart.

Besides harmony with the rest of the planet’s cell networks, the phone affords you Bluetooth, a 1.3-megapixel camera, dual displays, and a thin-is-in form factor. No release date yet, but it’s cleared the FCC, so it could drop any ol’ day now.

What’s intriguing is that this could be a trend among phone manufacturers. Indeed, if mass-market phones had access to both types of network, then making multiple versions of the same phone wouldn’t be neces...
