Infomanager?
Can someone from Verizon check the infomanager? Is there any change that might give us additional clues as to a day in August?
I assume that since no one posted anything, it is still not listed; but I had to ask.
Thanks

Aug. 11
I got so tired of nobody at VZW being able to even know about this phone that I called their regional HQ in Irvine, CA (I live in So. California) and complained. This was about a week ago. I was connected to the Exec. Office and after logging my complaint was put on hold for about a minute. When the person I was talking to came back they said that the phone was scheduled to be in VZW stores for sale on the 11th. If someone is releasing it earlier they didn't know about it or have any control over that, but for VZW it should be the 11th. Lets hope it shows up sooner!

Oakland RadioShack...
We will not do a waiting list for this phone. Since we do not know how many are coming in. So first come first serve. Like i have said the phone should be out Friday but there are no garentees, just an extreme probability.
Other stores might be doing a waiting list. Its the managers call. My manager will not do it. If you want one garenteed you have to buy one @ full retail then do the re-buy after the 31st to get any promotional pricing you might be elligable for.

"Upgrade" vs. NE2 ? & Customer loyalty$....Anyone from VZW available?
HI! I've been following along for a few months now - first submitted thread.
1st: Thanks to all those providing valuable info & tech. info. - much appreciated!
NOW...I spoke with VZW CS today & in regards to any discount, they said I'm not eligible for NE2 until Feb. 2005 BUT I am eligible for a PHONE UPGRADE (different than what others may be considering an "upgrade" in contract). The only problem is she couldn't give me an exact amount towards that upgrade because they don't have the v710 info. in their system (it is based on the phone cost). I spoke with a very helpful person at RS and she said if I have had my phone for over 2 years I should get a $200 credit for an upgrade. Unsure about this?!? 🙄
NEXT...From this forum S...

v710 in Grand Central Station
First time post..
For what it is worth, I was in the Verizon Authorized Resaller today in Grand Central NYC (by the entry off of Lexington Ave). The guy said he was getting "hundreds" of them early next week. Check it out if you are in NYC and looking for a v710.

everyone lisen
when I spoke with RS, they said they should have it in their stores by this week either wed. or thurs. which means if i go to get it, they have to activiate it on the verizon network so verizon stores should have it also.
example: when we call CS they dont know anything about that phone. well what if i get it activated thusday and have a problem and call CS. what would they tell me? are they going to tell me they dont even know anything about that phone? they have to give me some type of service to resolve my promblem. I hope this makes sense so the phone should be out by the end of this week.

RS ordering info
The RS order SKU for the v710 is 1701971 it is available with 2 day shipping, wich is what I used.
I have sold 5 already and bought one myself, recieved it on monday. You do still ge the rebate but cannot get the 2year upgrade price unless you return and re-purchase and activate in the store. so that we sales ass...'s can get paid 😁
P.S. the order sku for the transflash 128mb is 4401925

NOT ALL RS GETTING THEM
just got off the phone with a nice guy at radio shack and he told me some new info. first, the phones were to be sent to the radio shack stores on thursday, July 29th and each store will get them within a few days. Also, only 4000 radio shack stores are getting them and they already know who they are so you may want to call the radio shack in your area to find out if they are one of them. thats all the info i got for now.

RS Direct2U No Good
I placed an order on Sunday as soon as the SKU went active and called today to check the status and they cancelled my order. I work for RS and talked to a supervisor and they said that the SKU could not be allocated. Call again to verify your status.
Picking mine up Friday!!!
I live in Asheville, NC and called the Radio Shack in the Biltmore Square Mall. I gave the guy "Tony" the sku and he looked it up for me. After doing some research he said he had 2 V710's in route and available to sell on Friday. He said he would hold one for me and that with a one year contract it would be $350.00.So im going to end up paying about 50 dollars more to buy it at Radio Shack but getting it earlier is definately worth it to me!!! Finally I have been waiting since Feb. for this phone and have been stuck with an old Mot v120c with a broken off antenna! Good Luck to the rest of you guys.

I just got fired
I was a verizon wireless sales rep and they fired me today. I hate that company. Trust me...sign up with Cingular..In about a year Cingular will be very close to Verizon quality. And I mean before the AT&T merger. Trust me no matter how good the service is..the ethics and the way they view customers (behind closed doors) is very very shady and upsetting.

I just called radio shack.....
They told me that they did not have the v710 in yet but it will be in very soon and they were told that it was on its way. I was informed that it will cost $319 and there will be a 70 dollar rebate so the phone will cost about 249. So im going to call them back in a back a week to see if it will be there

Bluetooth Compatability with Lexus & Acura???
I know that this has been brought up in past posts, but now that some people have had a chance to get their hands on the V710, can anyone confirm whether or not the V710's Bluetooth features can link to those systems found in Lexus and Acura automobiles???
