There's a bunch of really cool new phones coming out; unfortunately, you can't have them. How does it feel to have to accept whatever phone Verizon feels like offering to you? On their timetable? With regards to testing? What testing? These phones are DESIGNED to work on these networks. The only real testing is to implant proprietary software that cripples your gear.

Its funny how people love to judge Verizon for how late they bring out their phones, but face the facts; Verizon has the best quality and they want their customers to have the best reliability of their handsets. To be honest I would never leave Verizon because At&T dont even touch our ev-do broadband speeds and our technology makes your wireless experience even more efficient. The biggest problem people have these days in wireless is being impatient and they leave their carriers in a blink of an eye because of some hot phone that is a great advertisement, but has too much fine printing to what they can actually do and not to mention that when you get phone you only conform yourslef to what it does andf not the potential that it truly has. I can't tell you how many people i see that get an iphone or x phone and they say theyre awesome because they have the latest and greatest but they cant do all that was advertised and i can say for a fact that with every Verizon phone that ive had i can use it to its full extent because it actually works like it says it does and without the stupid glitches that all other phones. That why extensive testing is done because we value our customer's business and we have the best loyalty in the business because only 0.09 % of customer's actually leave for other carriers. so yeah keep complaining but at least in the time that it took you to get a good exchange to a good quality phone from your carrier i was already using those features before with no issue

Why is everyone comparing us to the EU. Last time I checked we live in a Capitolist Economy. Were the companies have the right to do as they see fit as long as it is legal. Pretty sure you can move there if you want to have a socialist economy. The Federal Government has no right to say what a company has to do as far as sharing networks. Until the FCC starts building there own towers this is illegal. In the EU the EU builds the towers operates and updates them, Not private Companies!!! As far as old news tell me what is old about these phones. I mean come on the Iphone being new??? it runs at 56k speed on an outdated network. Please!!!!

Do you like AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint Nextel, or Alltel telling you which phones you can have?? Also about the testing, there is a huge reason why Verizon serice and phones are always ranked the highest in Consumer Reports and J.D. Power and associates, simply put because they work!!! Remember the razr, funny how the Verizon version had less problems than any other carriers verison and the Pearl gee Verizons version has a 2.0 megapixel camera and video and complete MP3 support something AT&T's and T-Mobile Versions lack!!!!!

So has anyone else notice that most of the posts on this forum fall into two catch all categories, 1) bashing the new products, 2) bashing the bashers......I for one am looking to start a new category....I intend to bash the bashing bashers! So what's wrong with wanting to bash? Why do you feel the need to defend every little thing that Verizon does? How do you know they release their phones so much later because they are "testing" them? Do you actually do the test? Can you provide documentation of said tests? I think not so how dare you sir bash the bashers. Let him who has not bashed be the one to bash the bashing bashers.

If by Verizon is behind in technology, you mean the entire US GSM network is behind in technology compared to CDMA in terms of coverage and data speeds, and the only advantage GSM carriers have is the ability to use an unlocked phone on one band of service on their piss-poor EDGE networks, then yes, Verizon IS behind in technology. Dave seems to feel that Verizon is the next Nazi regime ready to storm the castle of freedom lovers by robbing poor consumers of their ability to think, feel, and act for themselves. How does it feel? I'll tell ya how it feels, Dave. It feels like Verizon is lining us up by the boat load and forcing us in front of a firing squad- THAT'S how it feels! I mean, cell phones are such a necessity. I'd put them on the list right in between Oxygen and water. How dare Verizon force us to use the handsets they deem necessary, only releasing them after hiding behind the facade of 'extensive research?' We want freedom, dammit! We want to be able to go onto ebay and buy a phone from a Korean seller, jam in our SIM card and float up to wireless euphoria, despite the fact that our inferior GSM networks in the US cripple about 90% of the phones' features by the time all is said and done. Why look logic in the face and smile though, when you can wallow through life as ignorant jackasses instead? You VZW/Sprint bashers seem to forget that while AT&T/Cingular/The NEW AT&T/The OLD AT&T and T-Mobile struggle to compete with dial-up data speeds and poor coverage, not to mention horrific customer service, Verizon (and Sprint) are closing in on 4G, and have speeds rivaling DSL and blanketed coverage across the entire United States. There are no hard handoffs with CDMA. Roaming is available in more areas. Data speeds are 2 to 3 times faster. But with Cingular, you have the God-given right to buy a Sony Ericcson K850i for $400 or Nokia N95 for $600 and use it seamlessly, right? And of course by seamlessly, I mean the video call feature isn't supported by US GSM, along with having to drastically resize pictures when sending them as the GSM network doesn't support such large file transfer (Carrier restricted, by the way). Whereas with Verizon, you are stuck using the EnV, or the Chocolate, or the U740, or the Treo, or Q, or one of the other shi**y, outdated phones VZW has to sell. How dare they, right?
