sweet i loved playing with my frieneds voyager and i always wished att would getone then again its no tilt like i have now. but its smaller and more compact.
I work with LG employees quite often and all of them tell me that LG (in the US) doesn't release the same phones on multiple carriers unless it is a cheap ass basic one.
I just realized LG has the Rumor for sprint and alltel and the 8600 for VZW and alltel, but I think it was meant that LG doesn't put their high end phones with multiple carriers...
I think we (sprint) should get the LG rumor since Verizon's always copying our phones, why not copy theirs. Although, the LG Voyager doesnt touch the Samsung Instinct we have coming out very soon, but it could still be a great phone to have in case our customers want something else.
for starters, verizon has never copied a sprint phone....its always been the opposite, spirnt copying what verizon had first....and secondly, the reason why no one has sprint and why its in a deficet and is the most unpopular carrier is because they have ugly ass phones, and bad service....if your gonna go cdma then your gonna go verizon....its just how things work....verizon has started everything and sprint has merely tagged along....go to a high school and see how many people have sprint....zero....
some facts....sprint has been around much longer than vzw (1995 vs 2000,) and sprint helped pioneer cdma and digital technology. sprint has over 53m subscribers, compared to vzws 65m. vzw has more, yes, but 53m is hardly no one and not too far behind vzw. and as for vzw never 'copying' sprint phones, you might want to check the current lineup for starters. every single phone that sprint and vzw both carry landed on sprint first, except the razr and krzr. sprints normally a good six to eight months ahead of vzw on smartphone releases, as evidenced by the 6900 launching this week for vzw and back in november for sprint.
Just like my mentor said, LEAD, FOLLOW OR GET THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY. ATT & Sprint are doing just that. We were the 1st with the unlimited plan. We got the Voyager. Go ahead and get the Voyager on the other carriers. Web's still way too slow with them. Stick with the best.
I call bs on this, verizon already has a new voyager coming and they still have exclusivity on it, plus its their response to the iphone, so why would they want it on their rivals service? What they likely mean is that lg is putting touch screen phones on other carriers (ie the view, and prolly another prada clone for sprint).
um verizon has been around since atleast 1992 in the form of Cellular One. and while i have vzw a lot of my friends and people i know are on sprint where i live, so verizon doesnt exactly own that market
The reason that sprint phones come out sooner than Verizon's is because they don't test them at all! Sprint has had more programing updates and recalls than another other carrier becuase they push releases too soon. Verizon takes time to test and make sure the phones they release will live up to the expectaions that verizon has set. Plus Sprint has lost over 25 billion dollars last quarter alone! They are going down, their recent unlimited eveything plan is a last ditch effort to save themselves... and I guarentee it won't work.
