Looks worse than 4400
compare using phonescoop with the 4400 - it has less features, some of them key - mainly no analog
the only feature (if it can be reffered to it as a feature ) IS that the phone the phone does not have analog, after that the 4500 has MORE features than the 4400. I really dont understand why SO many people get their feathers ruffled about the no ana...

The LG VX 4500 is the next step in technology offering an all Digital platform with WAP 2.0. For those of you who have the handset, check out the Wireless Web feature.

LG VX-4500 impressions. Any comments on this or verification?
Got phone yesterday 1/30/04. My first clam shell. Am using with Verizon. Am impressed with it but found 1 bug and a little nit (little bug).
All in all I think it is a good phone, voice recognition is pretty good-better than my Kyocera 3035e. Screen is fairly good but in bright sunlight could be a little tough to read. A lot of ring tones but of course I will try to download some other ones.
