Poll: Whats your next phone gonna be????

Okay,

We all know by now some of the upcoming offerings that verizon hopefully will release by the end of august.

Which one excites you the most? Or is the one you think you might try out?

I think I'm gonna hold out for the Blackberry Curve, but the 755p could be tempting as well.

What are your thoughts???

Some Help From A Verizon Rep, Please...

At the moment I am a Attw customer, even though my contract with Attw expired, because I live in one of their "extended area" they wouldn't change plans.
Does anybody know Verizon is in the BayShore/Brentwood area of Long Island, New York? Just between the Sagtikos and 5th ave and just north of North Spur Dr.
If someone can tell me if the coverage by Verizon is good in that area, I'll be able to "dump" Attw right on or after Nov. 24th.
Anybody who uses Verizon up there, please let me know how the service quality is there please.
Thank you for finding the time to respond to this request.

How's your experience with the Nokia 2366i?

My grandma is getting a phone and I was thinking about the 2366i. I assume it's pretty good since it's a Nokia.

Whats the best choice phone for an upgrade?

My E815 has pretty much had it. I need to upgrade but cant find anything Im comfortable with. My primary concern is reception because Im in a rural area. But after checking three different stores Ive gotten the same answer; nothing is as good as the E815.

What phone that is out now has the best reception?

Call Waiting

Hi everyone,
I had this issue with my VX8000 and now the enV. The problem is, if I'm on the call with person 1 (let's call him "bob") and a person 2 calls ("dave") and I click the SEND button to switch to Dave, the screen will display "Dave." But when I am finished with the call and press the SEND button to switch back to "bob," the phone still displays "Dave" on it even though I'm now talking to "bob." It will also still display the number of minutes I talked to Dave instead of Bob. Then when you hit the END button to end completely, the phone will then only display Bob's name again (for a few seconds until the screen clears).

Does anyone know why this problem exists and is anyone else having this same issue?

Thanks!

dropped calls

Is it just me or is Verizon dropping a ton of calls lately? I live in the Boston area and have been experiencing an unusually high amount of dropped calls due to no signal.

HELP

I was just at a Verizon store going to purchase the new Blackberry 8830. I don't need the internet and wanted that phone more for the organization and to text message. They would not sell it to me without the data package. Not even if I kept it for a month and then cancelled it. Does anyone know what this is? I had a motorola Q and had no data package. I really want to get the phone so any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

LG 8300's Outside Keys... A Problem?

I'm lookin' at the LG 8300, and I noticed that there's no way to 'lock' the outside music player keys.

To me, that's kind of dumb... seems like they could be activated accidentally lots in your pocket, which would either play music when you're not expecting it (embarrassing, at, say, a funeral, or in a meeting), or, even if you have no music loaded up, it would still turn on the outer screen lots, burning up battery life.

Has this been a significant prob for anyone? Does the new firmware (V04) fix it in anyway? Or is there some way to disable the outside keys that isn't well-known?(I don't like belt-clip cases).

Verizon getting the Samsung M520 slider?

I saw in the NEW PHONES section that Sprint and Quest are getting the Samsung M520. Its a cute little slider phone that T-Mobile has had a version of for many months. Anyone have any info on this phone coming to Verizon? If they're creating a CDMA version, I would hope VZW would snag it, instead of sticking with the other dull and boring they currently have.

Thanks!
