Motorola V551 / V330 / V547 / V555 / V557
buy or wait for v620
hi to all,
i am going to start a new cingular plan soon and was wondering if the v620 is worth the wait. the v551 has edge and the v620 doesn't, but that doesn't matter a whole lot. should i jump on the v551 or wait?
thanks.

I thought EDGE would be a great advantage to allow me to link to my laptop and PDA for high speed access. It turns out, however, that EDGE speeds are internal to the phones browser/mail only unless you sign up for the $80 month data package.

So, EDGE was the big advantage I hoped it to be, as I'm not willing to spring $80 a month for access.

are you sure about that? cingular has a separate list of pricing for using the phone as a modem. 80 bucks being the fee for unlimited use. the $19.99 "media net" i believe is only for logging onto the wap int...
