It's obvious that steviecrackberry has the hots for ATT;that's ok-not everybody really deserves to be a VZW customer.The Ads say it best-the best phones get even better on th Nation's Best Most Reliable Wireless Network. WHO CARES how cool (can you hear Beavis?) your phones 'look' if they are relying on inferior and outdated networks?Apple iPhone is a great example-cool device that was released in 2007(not 1997) and it wasn't even 3G-maybe later-but worst of all it was on ATT?Steve definitely got the better end of the deal, because now you can get the same Wi-Fi enabled capbilities on the iPod Touch w/o the crappy little phone shoved in it!Apple good/ATT not good.

"Vz in pc fl" you hit the nail on the head. Verizon has the best phones, and the best network. The iphone is a cool device, but operates on a prehistoric data network. It's like a 4 cylinder mustang. Any criticism of the 9900 is foolish as well...every high schooler out there has it because Verizon & LG had the foresight to make such a feature packed phone affordable to the masses.

I was talking to our LG rep today as he came into check on things. I was poking fun of the new 9100 (because its damn ugly), and he let me in on a little secret. That is not the real face of the ENV replacement. He was pretty adamant that I/we would be much happier with the real upgrade, not the pics on the spysite.coms... we'll see if hes lying soon enough though! of course, he gave me lots of kool swag so ill take him at his word! :D

I have to admit I do like the 8610 its a nice looking clean phone. The fact that it will have a BT headset built in rocks because I always misplace the one that I have. I really hope they change the keypad design of both of these handset, but since both of these are prototypes a lot can change between now and launch..

how much with the LG vx9100 cost

24. sinfulta (unregistered) posted on 12 Mar 2008, 18:17

At or similar to launch, there will be a Maroon color similar to the 8350 currently available. So look for Black and Maroon at or around launch.

The arrow that is pointing down with the colorful lines behind it is the icon for "Media Center." It is jus a new name/look for Get It Now!

idk, the 9100 is a little better since its smaller. the env still looks like a better buy, it just looks like a phone with more quality. the env just needs more colors for females. forest green? come on now. can we get a pink red or teaL?

I haven't been let in on all the details yet, but VZW is moving away from GIN. They are debutting the new setup in the VX9100, and the media portion wil be called Media Center. I am not sure what the other sections will be called yet.

Actually have the phone in my hand as we blog (VX8610)....this thing rules. Very sleek, very clean. Blue built in is pretty damn cool. Charges at the same time the phone does. Not cheaply made at all. LG does it again. I guess you could have one of those crap iWishPhone. Good luck on the AT&T network. More Bars? You mean, we make our phones look like they have more bars...

I perfer the enV2 b/c it fits easily in my pocket. Voyager had a bit more functionality but failed the pocket test. vx9100 is a nice compact everyday messaging phone. For more advanced features I rely on my Treo

How come the LG VX8610 Decoy is appearing in different colors. There is this black one that has a similar finish as the previous chocolates and then there is one where the front is a dull matte gray and the back is blue. Which one is the real one, or will they both be released?
