LG VX-8600 / AX-8600
Questions to Phone Owners
I have few questions for the phone owners:
1. Does this phone have a regular headset jack? or do you have to use proprietary cable to connect on the bottom?
2. Does it use the same battery as 8100/8300?
3. Does it have announce alert, when the phone reads to you who's calling or texting from your phonebook? 8100 has that feature and I love it.
4. Can it be hacked to use EVDO connection through bluetooth on your PDA or Laptop, like 8100 or is it now restricted and you have to sign up for a plan to use it?
Appriciate your replies.
thanks,
Arkady

1. you have to use an included headset adaptor to make your regular headset compatible.
2.no, that battery is different from the 8100/8300, and unfortunately both the regular and extended batteries have less power than those of the 8100/8300
3. You can assign it to read out the names of the callers but I don't think you can do it with text messages.
4. can't help you there but I am sure at least one cell phone megageek in this forum can help you.

Does the battery last as long as the 8300? or as 8100. I know it has less power, but maybe there is a software update that makes the battery just as powerful as 8300.

Internet usage and roaming drain all batteries, the battery life depends on your individual use.
