Stupid crashing UI

What to do....

So two weeks ago Saturday, which was 13 days ago, I went and got the Krzr with my NE2. I am not really enjoying the phone as much as I had hoped and really wanted to get the new LG VX8600.... however my store doesn't have it in stock and won't until next week. What should I do?

VZW Navi Question...Need a couple of answers

Okay,

So when you start your trip and you enter your two destinations, can you have those directions sent to your phone via text?

I am wondering because I am a sales rep and sometimes I have to travel in and out of areas that have a good signal. So lets say you have the directions and all of sudden you travel to a shady area and you lose the signal. What happens then?

If anybody has any experience with this, let me know. thanks.

Chris

glad to be here

I just left sprint and their POS business operation they call a wireless provider. I was with them for 6 years and can honestly say that company is losing it starting with, and most importantly, their customer service. Glad to be part of a company that cares about its subscribers and knows what its doing…yessssss

I went with the vx8500 about 19 days ago and now see the 8600 has been released. I am more of a flip phone fan do u think Verizon will let me exchange it even though im over the 15 day period?

GIN game reviews?

I don't normally buy a lot of games through Get It Now, but if I could view a ratings site that reviewed them all, I just might look into one or two. Any ideas on such a site?

Verizon's new skin section

Have any of you seen the new "Skin" section on Verizon's website? I thought it was pretty neat. They even showed a couple Cingular phones on there which I thought was pretty interesting.

Also, in their "Holiday Gift Guide" they show the enV (VX9900). If you haven't seen it yet I would suggest checking it out. It's some pretty cool stuff. 😉

New Samsung!!

I think I agree with everyone that the samsung might be the phone to get rather than the lg 9900. I've been waiting forever for that phone, and now that new Samsung looks 100% better. I also wanted an LG 8600. Not sure what to do now...

Black Friday Deals?

Does Verizon typically do black Friday (day after thanksgiving) deals? I want to give my 8703e to my significant other and use her NE2 to get back to a Treo700W for myself and wondered if anyone knew if VZW would be doing any deals that day for it.

Thanks

Motorola RAZR MAXX

Im surprised nobody is talking about the MAXX on this forum. As far as release dates most articles are saying within the next few weeks and before the end of the year - but nobody has been able to confirm anything. I am super pumped for this phone. I still have my razr v3c which is holding up ok but Im ready for a new flashy phone.

Here is a 1 minute review video from some chick site that I found a link to - havent actually seen it yet (at work) but hopfully there is some good info in here...also atleast it shows its a legit phone out there, enjoy:

VZW vs. Cingular

Cingular has more customers then VZ yet their revenue isn't as high.

VZ is adding more customers then any other carrier, and their customers are spending more money while holding down their churn.

Whats wrong with Cingular? They offer early nights, they claim to have "fewest dropped calls" more coverage (worldwide because of GSM), and they have more customers then their competitors?

What are they doing wrong that VZ is doing so right?

Isn't GSM less expensive to operate and maintain then CDMA?


Let's take a snapshot of recent numbers and compare. 3Q 2006:

Customers:
Cingular - 58.7M
Verizon - 56.7M

Net Additions:
Cingular - 1.4M
Verizon - 1.9M

Revenue:
Cingular - 8.7B
Verizon - 23.3B

ARPU:
