Nokia 6255i / 6256i
Verizon Branded 6256i - Almost here!
Just thought I would put this in the forum, seems to be there are a lot of people like me waiting to see the Nokia 6256i be released on Verizon - Well, here's the 411 straight from Nokia showing the 6256i branded Verizon Wireless:

Yes, I noticed that red VzW logo too. And the question is: When will it show up in VzW stores? Christmas '05 or during '06?

I'm really hoping that it wont be anywhere near that long...I can't get anyone "in the know" to even guesstimate, days, weeks, months? Not even phonescoop.com moderators will guesstimate that based on their experience of these things in the past (I tried to get them to already - no go).
Oh well...Sucks that it takes Verizon so freakin long to get good phones yet when a new LG is out Verizon has it! Ugh...

The combination of NOKIA, a fully enabled BlueTooth and VzW's good reception here, would convince me to leave AT&T and go to VzW.
What good VzW phones are you talking about? To me they are not good if they do not have a fully enabled BlueTooth so that I could transfer files for free...

The only phones I have had with Verizon is Motorolas and they have all been TERRIBLE the Nokia 3589i (its a couple years old)though it works the best out of all the phones my entire family has had every1 i know with Verizon has either Motorola or LG both my parents have LG's now after having Moto's for so long not so good..My parents ask me 2 use my phone...lol..Nokia is great cant wait 4 the new phone!! PLEASE UPDATE me when it gets 2 VERIZON!! But I almost switched out of Verizon cuz I had 2 phones that were moto's and were awfull when I got the Nokia no complaints..2 BAD they dont have a large variety of Nokia's like Tmobile or Cingular. Anyway let me know
Thanks
Thanks

The phone will only be available to agents starting in 2 weeks, and Yes it has unrestricted bluetooth profiles. Works great too!!
...
What do u mean only 2 agents? does that mean we gotta wait still or what?.Anyway im glad its comming soon. Any specific dates? Can I change the faceplate? Not that its important but just wondering? Can I also use the ringtones I DL 4 dif people in my phonebook? Cuz the 3589i u can only do Ringer ID with the ones on the phone not the ones downloaded.
...
So........ agents know when they can get it, but so far, nothing is known about when the general public can get it? Any educated guesses?

Just 2 be sure are you guys from Chicago IL..Becuz I wanna make sure its comming here 4 sure who knows it may get 2 other verizons in other states first..Hopefully they'll all come out 2gether Verizon is full of suprises.
...
Ha! unrestricted bluetooth profiles *now*, but lets wait until it's released to claim victory there - my bet is that's one of the reasons Verizon has yet to release it, they are still perfecting their crippling of bluetooth on it.
...
nah I doubt it cuz every1 else has Bluetooth with this phone y would they cripple it now in some areas people already have it and with Bluetooth will they disable it 2 people who already have it 2?
...
Jesus the broken English in that response is astounding!
Anywho, the people that already have it did not get it from Verizon as their "official release" of the phone, they got it through their connections, winning a contest from Nokia, or in some other manner...NO ONE at this point has actually purchased the phone from Verizon as a consumer because Verizon still has not released the phone. Also, Verizon has never released a phone with Bluetooth fully functional and according to what I've read about their supposed contracts in regards to "get it now", I highly doubt they ever will, at least not anytime soon.
Of course, no one will know for sure until the phone is in Verizon stores, so we'll just have to wait and see...My money is on t...

THAT TOTALLY SUCKS 😡 But whatcha gonna do..Hopefully they wont disable the bluetooth although its a cool feature I think it should be fine cuz it has speaker phone wich I heard works great so who knows..I just want the phone released already.
...
My money says your wrong, you can go buy one at RS in a week, BT will be fully enabled
...
Since you "know" that you can buy one at radio shack in a week you probably work there or know someone who does and thus you know when there's will be available or maybe already have them in or something and thus you're probably right...
I don't work for any of those companies, I just know that VZW has crippled it in every phone they've sold to force people to use get it now and I've seen articles about their contracts with regards to get it now which seem to keep them from leaving BT alone so I don't see any reason to beleive they will not cripple BT in the Nokia.
Obviously you know something that I don't - good for you.
