you guys are seriously all retarded

why do you idiots argue over e815 or 8100. it depends what you want on the fone. i want mp3 player, and 8100 has way more memory, i can put a 1G sd card, while e815 only is capable of 256. some others might want bluetooth, and maybe the e815 has better bluetoooth or osme other stuff.

512 MB is BS

phonescoop (and some other sites) are idiots for stating this phone has 512MB. when they say 512MB, they make it seem that it has 512MB flash memroy, while it only has 64MB. The phone is built with 512MB, but they use that for programs such as get it now or phonebook or pics and videos and ****.

8100 vehicle charger

I am looking to get the 8100 next week when my $100 credit will be available. I currently have the LG4400, just curious if anyone knows if I will need to get a new vehicle charger or if the one for the 4400 will also work for the 8100?

Thanks for your input!

1GB sd card?

I read somewhere that the 8100 will not suport a 1GB card. is this true? if it does, is it worth the 100 bucks, will a 512 be enough for movies to be tranfered too? any help on this?

thanks

What's the best resolution to have camera set on for everyday pics?

What is the best resolution to have the camera set on for everyday pics? I mean, I know I can change it from pic to pic, but what is the best to keep it on for when I just pull the phone out for a quick shot with out time to "set" anything up.

Why so few phones on the horizon?

doesn't seem like there is much coming out from Verizon in the next couple months (according to phone scoop). Seemed like when the 815 and 8100 were planned they were on this site months ahead of time. I have the 8100 and unfortunately have marginal reception at my house. My old samsung a610 can work with it, the 8100 drops calls and sounds like crap to the people on the other end. So even though I love the phone's look and features , I have to return it and wait for something else... or get the Nokia 6682 from cingular when it comes out. â˜šī¸ Do people think Verizon will get something in for the christmas season?

Updates? and a glitch I noticed on my phone...

I was just wondering how often does Verizon release updates for the phones?

I had the VX7000 and do not remember ever getting it updated but my memory did say it was full even though the phone was only 36% full. I had the phone sent in for an update but it did not seem to fix the problem at all.

Ok now to the glitch I found in my phone. I was going through the backlight options and noticed that my main screen backlight was going off fast no matter what length time I had on the backlight. No matter how long I had the backlight set for it always goes off after 7 seconds. I had to set it to always on to get it to last any longer than 7 seconds.

Maybe the update will fix that issue.

So if anyone who knows anything about releases of u...

Just Fired Off an E-mail to Verizon

Dear Verizon,
Can you hear ME now?
You bet I am angry!

"On Wednesday, 13 July, I purchased a new phone, an LG vx8100, via phone. I never received the promised e-mail confirmation of this purchase, so I am unsure even of the total cost. I called on Friday, 15 July, to see if the phone had shipped and was told that it had shipped on Thursday. Today when the phone did not arrive, I called to get a tracking # and was informed that the phone did not ship until today (Mon., 18 July) at 12:30. Had I known I would not receive the phone until mid or late this week, I would have opted for overnight delivery. But when I purchased the phone, the person advised not to go with that option because the phone would ship to arrive on Monday no matte...

bluetooth playing movies and MP3's 8100

If you have a bluetooth handsfree device (ex.: BT250v JABRA), and you upload movies and shows and MP3's (.mid, whatever) to your VX8100, can your bluetooth play the sound for those, without any sound coming out of the speakerphone/headset it self?

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ANY INPUT!

Any solutions to the reception issue?

I seem to remember some number you could dial on phones to refresh the tower list? I love the phone the only thing that is making me consider returning it is the bad reception in my house.

The moderator removed reviews fo e815

According to the e815 forum the moderator removed negative reviews for the e815. Why have they not done the same for this board?
