the MP may be the same, but there is a large difference in the picture, much of it comes from the quality of the hardware (top end lens in the Dare) and better software.

On the best network, but not sure of that its the best phone.

It is the best "non-smartphone" on Verizon. Is that specific enough for you?

to #30 maybe best network but not best phone. I went to a verizon store today to see what the dare is like and its crap!! the touch screen is not good the iphone is better on the touch screen part. It feels very very cheap. LG could've done a better job!!!

how does the bluetooth feature work, like when you want to transfer music, photos, etc. and what can you tranfer it with pc, other phones or i-touch?

26. (unregistered) posted on 28 Jun 2008, 09:29

so you can play youtube clips, thanks for the answer

yes u can, i also have the phone ... youtube works....

114. (unregistered) posted on 29 Jun 2008, 22:12

yeah but m.youtube.com doesn't have all of the videos as regular youtube. I think m stands for mini

121. (unregistered) posted on 30 Jun 2008, 12:20

m stands for mobile. Many sites have a m. or /mobile, and a few other variations, that their server sends you if detects a mobile browser, tho somtimes you have to manually enter the correct mobile site.

got the phone on Friday.. love it, and defiantly agree with the review, did notice a software glitch.. the thing reboots periodically when paired with my cars bluetooth.. has happened 3 times in the course of 4 hrs. anyone else notice similar flakiness, trying to get my ducks in a row before wasting my time with verizon tech support to get the issue resolved.

If you are having issues with the phone send it back. Never keep a phone that has any sort of issue with in the first week. You probably just got a bad one.

I had no problems pairing the bluetooth my headset or PC.

with anything you buy the first week, you get to be the unnoficial "tester" testing in a lab is not nearly effective enough. They will patch anything soon!

Funny, I have the same problem when I'm connected via Bluetooth to my MacBook Pro... Every so often, the phone just reboots.
