Amazon shipping TF cards?

I'm on the checkout page for the TF card and adapter on Amazon, and it say it will ship in October. Is this what those of you who have 'em already saw too?

Also, if they are shipping now, how fast do you get them?
Thanks

Cheap V710

Hey all,
So, I have the a580, and its a p.o.s., and I've only had it for 6 months now. So I can't upgrade.

I want to know if any one here has had any problems setting up a new line to avoid that $175 fee for buying a phone outside of your upgrade period, by adding a new line to your account, and then canceling it the very next day?

I used to tell people to do this all the time when I sold Sprint phones, I just want to know if Verizon has any safe guards against such practices... Let me know. Thanks

Consolation for the VZW soon to be phone purchasers...

Those that purchased the phone from Radio Shack paid $100 more for the phone than will those of use that will get it from Verizon. Those people all seem to have gotten free BT accessories. So in reality, they paid for the items, and paid too much. They are not worth $120, they are worth $40-60 on ebay, so VZW purchasers will actually pay less overall for a BT accessory and the phone than RS purchasers.

Was this perhaps Moto's plan from the start...this way nothing is really given away for "free".

QNC worked - once

All, I somehow managed to get QNC working on the V710 via my Clie UX50 last night. The problem is, using the same profile I couldn't duplicate it! After I connected once successfully (I got the little 0101010 circle icon on the display) and disconnected, when I tried it again the phone switched back to packet data on the next try.

All I know is that I was mucking with:

Connect to [modem/PC/phone]
Flow control
modem speed
added AT&C2 to the init strings (already had at$qcmdr=2 and at$qcqnc=1 in there)

Something among that combination made it work just once. So there's hope for people that don't have National Access, but it's not solid yet.

If you upgraded you never stood a chance.

I have reread the rules of the promotion on the v710 conducted by Motorola.

It says quite clearly: "New customers only. Customers with previous accounts (retuning customers), or existing customers are not eligible."


It also says something I am sure we are all familiar with:

"Void where prohibited by law." and "At participating retailers."

PARTICIPATING--Verizon simply was not a participating retailer.

Last week there were several early adopters who, even though, they had Verizon accounts they had to have this phone.

They crowed like a rooster that they were one of the first to buy there phone and that they were sure to be one of the 710 winners of the promotion. And they got a 100 phone credit on there bill. And they w...

If ever there were a case for a class action...

OK...

I get the first 710 registering as a qualifier, but how can they state open availability? Not everyone would buy from RS nor would everyone be getting new contracts through the online service. Therefore the promo was not OPEN and violates the "first come first serve" notion if there wasn't a level playing field. In this litigious nation what's one more class action?
