A690 vs V65

After glancing at the new Moto V65 (its about time we got a color screen V60), I'm thinking the A690 is gonna have some competition. Right now everyone who has push to talk has motorola; unless Samsung gets their phone out on the market fast, noone will want to switch brands when they upgrade to color screen. Personally, I think three things are holding consumers back from doing push to talk on a personal, non-business usage. 1)Price. The only P2T phone for Verizon is $200 on a 2 year contract, noone wants to spend that much for a black and white screen when they can get a camera phone cheaper. 2)Monthly service. No family plan. Whats up with that? Customers are looking for the best value to get their whole family hooked up. At $60 per phone per month, noone is going P2T, especially now with free in newwork calling. If you want Dad, mom, and junior to push to talk, you gotta bring the price down. The last factor in my opinion is non color screen. If Im spending that much on my phone, I want full get it now service and picture screen savers. Verizon is addressing that issue with the new line of phones, but GOD its taking them forever to get them out. Just my two cents.
