Motorola V710
Spoke to a helpful moto cust. service rep today!
"We are not sure of a precise launch date, although we do know it will definitely be released during the first half of 2004."
"The full price of the phone will be somewhere close to $400. Since you have service with Verizon, you can expect to recieve a rebate between $50 and $100."
That clears my personal worries about having to wait all through the summer, and maybe into the fall. Amidst all this speculation, this is the most specific information I've heard in a while. (we're so in the blue that 'first half of 2004' can be considered specific 😉 )
