Actually, every touch-screen phone currently being made is about the iPhone.

Yes, try the website that someone listed above (vx9700.com). Then look at the photos. Am I mistaken, or are they comparing it to an iPod touch?

"I'm scared of getting proved wrong again, so I'm going to make up an excuse to not be online before I get further put into my place"


That's what you just said translates to.

I cant agree more than what you just...hey you all do not blame on Trevor, the iphone is the first phone he have had and no only that he had to pay provably 500.00 for it so he has to make himself believe that was a good investment...no knowing that 2 months later, people were pay half the money for the same thing..
as someone say before a phone is not only good because of the touch screen feature, there are so many things about a good phone, like being able to replace the battery without having to replace the phone, download music over the air, getting turn by turn direction, and no only that imagine now typing in a virtual keyboard, just think about those thing when you think about the touch screen, and I bet once you take it in to account the iphone will be worthless, unless it is the first phone that you ever had you will not know better.....and those are a few of the things that you cant do with the Iphone

Hey lg. tech, when did I say I owned an iPhone? I said I received the chance to experience it's technology. I still own the Voyager and the more I use it the more I hate it. Unlike half of the U.S.'s population I a choosing to wait until the iPhone 3G comes out. Then I will purchase the original iPhone over the web for dirt cheap. The new iphone does have turn by turn direction. What else you got for me?

answer to your question yes, you will get a 8g card but you have to purchase the phone in a plan of 79.99 and above to be legible for the sd card.

Yea my sister works for Verizon Wireless too and everytime they come out with new phones I have to wait for what seems like(OR IS) ages until employees can purchase them and then I still end up paying the online prices shouldn't employees have discounts on the products too not just the service!?!?

personally, i only have to keep a phone for 5 months before its free... ill explain. i have a demo line, so its free. i get 3k mins, unlimited txt/pix and vz nav. i get half off my vcast and half off other features (like ringback tones and such)... so my bill is like 15-20/month with tax. so if the phone is 500, and i save about 100/month, i get a phone about every 5 months (i usually do it every 2 or 3 months, and sell the old phone.

Thats better than what corporate employees get.

We just get 50% off the plan and all features(except insurance)

Our phone discounts suck, people who have employee discounts(best buy, wells fargo etc...) get better prices on their phones than us, it seriously is lame.

In august I hear we start getting "better" prices on our phones, I doubt it

We get to upgrade every 10 months though, so I guess thats cool

damn that sucks.... well actually we have 2 options. i got lucky enough to get a demo line from the store. for the most part, the option if for employee plans, which is probably more like what you guys get... the corporate stores have all live working phones, those phones are on demo lines. the difference if i get to take mine with me :)
