Should I keep on waiting or move on????

I've been due for a free phone 😁 (yes I know this one won't be free) for a long time, but wasn't excited about anything from VRZ till I read about the V710 in Feb. 😳 Have been sitting on my old LG TM-510 ever since. Keep on wondering if the V710 is worth the wait. 😕 Lots of the bells & whistles being talked about here are irrelevant to me, but some basic things I haven't seen mentioned are make-it-or-break-it items for me. 😈 If the V710 falls short on these items, I'll switch carriers to get the right phone. Hopefully some of you folks can tell me if I should bother to continue waiting:

Unlimited voice dials. It's speaker-independent voice dial so that means all you have to do is say the name of the contact exactly as you have in your phone book. So for instance, you have "John Smith" in your book, all you say is "John Smith" and it will dial for you. You don't have to program the voice dials at all. And it also has Digit Dial which means you can just say the phone number and it'll dial it.

2 - Does the voice dial work well or do I have to say the name on average 27 times before

To answer your 4th and 5th questions.

It's easy to setup pairing between a Bluetooth enabled handheld and Bluetooth phone. Like the first person that responded said, you only have to setup once. I pair my Sony Ericsson T61c with a Bluetooth adapter with my Sony Clie PEG-UX50 (Bluetooth enabled Palm OS PDA).

To answer your 5th question, here is Motorola's spec page which you may or may not have already seen.

And here is a PDF document on the phone.

No problem. It's been on Motorola's site for a while. Here are some other PDF documents that people might be interested.

Cool... I actually could use the A840 since I thought only BT was missing but I didn't know Analog was gone too. I already have both the HS810 and HS820. The HS820 came with my V80 and the HS810 was a evaluation sample.
