I have a v600 right now, and I bought the a630 from a good friend of mine. Tomorrow I will have pictures of it proving it's in my posession if anyone is intresed in the phone shoot me an email. If I don't like the a630 I will be selling it. Let me know...

By the way... it's cingular branded, but it is unlocked =)

Sounds like you need to put it on ebay then, player. No way in hell I'm paying premuim dolla for a beta phone that may not even have the latest firmware in it!

GOOD LUCK!

Yeah, you're right, he offered you too much.

Full-on production models with the latest firmware and warranties are rolling out of the factory right now and will be in stores in a couple of weeks.

Good luck selling your pre-production copy.

anyone that said "in the next two weeks" in June must be psychic, the damn thing wasn't even announced until July. I'm seeing prices poppin up in places like Cnet, so I'm assuming that it's comin soon. I haven't heard anything yet from Moto. Nor have I heard anything about it being on the way in my store, but then I'm pretty new to the store so I'm more worried about learnin the ropes and the procedures than what phone's comin out when.

Not to mention this was slated for a 3rd quarter release, and while technically the third quarter's now over, it's still not too late to make that close to realistic.

hahahahaha at this loser trying to plug his promo phone when the phone will be here in 4-6 weeks.

Amazon has a policy that if you pre-order something and it doesnt ship in 4-6 weeks that your money will be refunded...And you're talking December?

HAHAHAAH nice try buddy....you might as well keep your phone

I too have my own store.... I have a close personal friend that works for Motorola in Houston,tx...their job is to drive around the southwest and midwest and give training on new phones and projected release dates. The project release date is mid nov to dec. Name one phone that was released early from Motorola.... Also gsmarena and phonescoop that have it slated as 3rd quarter just proves what I am saying.

The phone is pretty neat... it's the size of a motorola v600 without the antenna. It's a tad thicker. The auido quailty is pretty good... And I got it to work with att gprs,mms,and sms perfectly.. All in all it's a cool phone. The keyboard is much easier than a treo or sidekick.

Oh and the one I got came with a FULL HTML browser app...

Do you know which Bluetooth profiles it supports? I hope it's not limited to headset only.

Thanks...Scott

It would appear to be headset only.

Let me reiterate this for you...

If a well known company puts an item up for pre-order on there website...with a policy that states that if the item doesnt stock and ship within 4-6 weeks...the money will be refunded...do you seriously think that "Mid-November-December" is likely? Or I take you just think Amazon is going to have all these people pay money for a pre-order...just to return it later?

Give it up...Cingular reps have been all over Howard Forums saying that the A630 was in their systems to receive shipment on the 8th of October.

So either keep your promo phone or sell it for a reasonable price....because nobody is going to pay rape prices for a phone that will available in a matter of weeks.

Well lets do some math.... today is oct 1. 4-6 weeks would be 1st to mid nov.

So 1st to mid november.... or mid nov to december.... who the **** cares... not me.. I have actually decided to keep this phone. I just wanted to prepare to sell it if i didn't like it.. =P

I guess only time will tell.... And as to these people who work at cingular... I actually have another friend who is the rep for the whole state of oklahoma.... They still haven't had ANY conformation of any delivery...and they ALWAYS know.... so really I guess only time will tell.

And by the way... I was in no means trying to RAPE anybody on a price.... It's called supply and demand. All I was saying was i could put it on ebay and sell it for 650 easy ....that's twic...

First, I didn't say 2 weeks. I said a couple of weeks. That could be 2, that could be 4. And people haven't been saying that since June, either. The first predictions were late August/early September.

Second, your source is wrong. You aren't the only person with sources.

Take your buggy, unwarrantied pre-production phone to Ebay where people don't know any better.

HEY DUMB@SS!! The 5th is hardly close to the middle of Nov. Read some of the speculations. We're lookin to have it around the 16th....NOTICE I SAID AROUND the 16th!!! No need to bash someone for speculations that they made a month ago. Do you really have THAT much time on your hands?

justinwilliams

Nov 8, 2004, 10:51 AM
No... I just remember the bashing you did to me when I said Mid November to December....

Now you are saying you said the 16th???? LOL... you never said the 16th... you said 4 weeks.... and then you said that would be the begening on Nov... make up your mind what you said.... You sound like John Kerry. LOL

perhaps you should go back and read a little closer. I don't recall bashing you for anything, but rather I'm defending the person that YOU'RE bashing in the previous post for making an assumption a month after he made it.

Frankly I could care less when the damn thing comes out...it'll get here when it gets here, it'll be moderately priced, and I like it, but I'll be just as happy with my t637.

I, myself never said 4 weeks nor the beginning of Nov., and notice my last post....AROUND the 16th, not a definite date. All I have said since I started my job as a rep is that the info that I've been given say "mid-nov".

DONE

Unlike you, I'm willing to admit my source was wrong.

You still trying to sell your $100 phone for $650? Of course, it being Ebay, I'm sure you'll get some sucker to cough up the cash for a pre-production handset with a mis-aligned camera.

Yeah, $100 phone. Motorola is really screwing the pooch on this one... by the time this phone comes out there are going to be far better options available.

ummmm my soucre being wrong???? i said mid november to december... LOL... I was just throwing it in your face that you were wrong =) It isn't even mid november...so how could I be wrong?

I'm betting it's closer to November 15th Since that's the day Cingular has deemed "DAY ONE" with their merger...

And yes i did sell the phone for 650.00 on ebay and they loved the phone... mis aligned camera?????? is this from one of your reliable sources again ...LOL... the camera on mine was fine...... =)

I'm hearing early December now, but that may be someone being overly conservative because they were wrong about early November. Then again, it's still early November right now, but getting closer to mid November every day.

Did you miss all the press about the mis-aligned camera? From what I've seen it wasn't bad, but was enough that they had to delay the phone to fix it so that they wouldn't get complaints. I've heard that you might not even notice unless you were really into the camera phone thing.

Glad you found a sucker to pay $650 for it. Too bad for Motorola that they took too long getting it out... could have sold it for $300 easily during Q3 as originally scheduled, but there are far cooler phones coming out next month that ...
