Is the touch feature that they're talking about the same as the Voyager? If so that's to bad. I was hoping it would have a great reaction to the touch like an iPhone.

good thing new phone time is around the corner for me (so glad im not contract bound) :D menus look way better than even the Voyager, and honestly i like sliders better than a flip like the voyager, cant wait!

Yea it has touch screen just like the voyager does, the only thing i dont like about this phone is the way the top slides up to reveal the qwerty keypad i'd rather it open up like the voyager. they seem more or less the same tho i doubt if this phone would be much of a big difference from the voyager

Don't like what the menu looks like. f700's UI was better. The f700 would kill a dumb phone like the voyager... they dumbed down this phone to match the voyager i guess...

Yet another Verizon phone that falls short of my expectations. Luckily my contract is up next spring so if Verizon doesnt finally come out with a good smart phone by then, its see ya!

This isn't a smartphone. But it does have GPS.

hey if all you are looking for is a "SMARTPHONE" with wifi & gps stop looking at dumbphones... last time i checked a little thing called the samsung i760 is available with all your "expectations"

Exactly what im looking for and no mandatory data plan... hopefully

There will be no data plan manadatory, this is just one of the dumbphones, just like a enV or voyager #5 the reason they got this with a slide up is there is a rather large portion of the cusotmer base who doesn;t like the fact that the enV flips open and want a slide up qwerty pad I know I would do this over the voyager #8 quit being a cheap bitch, the i760 does everything you just described, you want to be a cheap bitch and not pay for the data plan, be my guest.

First of all, all cell phones have gps in them now. Please be educated about what you say and request navigation. GPS is a tracking service that is required on all cell phones. DUH!

This phone looks pretty good, it looks a lot better than the voyager, in my opinion, hopefully it wont have some crazy high price for features that might suck. and just to see does anyone have anymore info on this phone?

Please tone it down, angry man. The i760 is a Windows Mobile device, which many people (myself included) refuse to purchase on principle alone. There's no reason to be offensive, there are plenty of people who are looking for a phone that doubles as a good mutimedia device, without necessarily investing in a smartphone... this product and the Voyager both fill that bill well as far as I can tell.

ok, gps--on all cell phones but not in the capacity you would like to use probably--all cell phones are required to have gps for emergency purposes only, that is the only requirement and the only reason it is mandatory. If you are looking for a location based service and using the term gps we have something to help you in that capacity as well. As for smartphone/pda/"normal" phones, they all have different functions that make them different, hence the classifications, so look up what makes a phone a smartphone first, and all you jumping on people, how bout we help them learn before we beat them down over being ignorant in the sence of not knowing--and the Voyager sold out before 10 am PST--iphone what??

I think what everybody means by "GPS" is VZW's VZ Navigator service. Technically, like it's already been mentioned, all cell phones are GPS ( E911 and Location On ) capable. The u940 is NOT a smartphone ... just a regular phone with lots of capabilities ( like the Voyager ). Since it's in that category, I'm pretty sure VZ Navigator will run on it. Every Verizon camera phone ( except the Samsung u340 ) has VZ Navigator capabilities. Right now, the only "smartphone" that has VZ Navigator is the Blackberry Pearl... but they others will follow suit real soon.

Is this phone going to be as chunky as the voyager??? casue it looks to be maybe thicker. hope not... i thought if anything they would try to make slimmer touch phones. the thing about the voyager is that it starts to curve down around the edges to make it look slimmer but in the picture above this phone looks FAT! i really would rather have the slide out QWERTY rather than it flip like the voyager but my biggest problem is the size of these touch phones verizon is putting on the market. I mean what happened... who cares if verizon had disageements with apple on the iphone sales work it out they should have never passed that deal up.... another thing why is verizon letting these European countries get the cool new slim touch phones... the prada..... the armani......the viewty... and plenty more! its not like im going to switch networks casue they dont release the phone i want but what is nost important is the service they provide! THE BEST EVER!
