My feelings aren't as strong as yours, more like a strong dis-like, but since we're talking about what we hate about that fake Nike symbol company then I'll participate; *Finding ways to charge people more money for something that cost them nothing; City ID 2 bucks- what a joke. *The "best service ever" that just hapens to not work in my house or one of my friends houses. *CDMA service, meaning the big companies wont make their best and most feature packed phones compatible because the rest of the world uses GSM. * Having to here my brother complain about not being able to go to certain websites and how annoying it is to pay for games and ringtones.

name a company that gives you free ringtones? or free games? if you're smarter than the average third grader there's ways to do get free ringtones for any cell phone..... as for websites, show me one site in a side by side comparison where the i-phone or Instinct or Vu can go that the voyager, Dare or Glyde can't go.. or maybe a BB to BB or Pam to palm? pick your weapon City ID - yes it's useless, but do you really think they didn't pay someone to develop this? do you think they didn't have to upgrade the network to work with this program? Noooo, big bad verizon waved it's magic wand and it existed, ready to go and ready to rape it's customers...you think $2 bucks is too much (i do) don't buy it "that just hapens to not work in my house or one of my friends houses" come to my part of the country and i'll show you entire COUNTIES where ATT doesn't get service, never mind 3g CDMA - read consumer reports next year when they do their annual cell phone issue and you can choke on the page that shows multiple cdma phones listed as the best in the industry... unless you're one of those people that has to buY the newest european GSM phone off E-bay every 6 months so you can brag about how ytou have the best phone... what're you going tobitch about 2 years from now when everyone is using LTE???? or next year when Verizon fully launches it's open access policy and any comapny in the world can make a phone for the network?

Take a few deep breaths, it will be okay. If you're going to insult someone regarding them being less smart than a third grader please get an adult to proofread it for you- "smarter than the average third grader there's ways to do get free ringtones" LOL. How about not insulting any person in general ever, that way you don't have to taste your foot. Also, your points would come across as more valid to everybody without all the hostility.("you can choke on the page... what're you going tobitch about" etc.)

....why do people always complain about "Companies charging people for things...?" Is there a business in any industry that doesn't "charge people for things?" Shouldn't the greater concern be whether a feat/service is available with one provider vs another but to expect anything for free seems almost...childish (not to call names)...its just not realisitic in a capitalistic society which most people should learn about at a very early age.

if this is the way you look at things then I guess it wouldn't bother you if everytime you bought a ticket to see a movie there was an additional seat charge. Or a charge for napkins at your local restaurant. My point being they already had this capability and instead of including it with the other caller id info like another phone company already does for free, they decided to charge for it. So to answer your question, yes, there are businesses in every industry that don't charge for things, including this service, in the telecom industry.

Hi... i got the firmware update today. im somewhat impressed, however confused. i love the new themes, but they didnt keep the old ones for some reason. ??? music is kinda wierd... if you play a song, it tries to show the album art, in which makes it really hard to switch songs quickly. the shortcut menu (although uber cool) is glitchy and slow. the white theme is a good addition to the plain black old ones. I was pretty mad when i found out it didnt support handwriting recognition. Another thing itll do different than the previous version is when you connect it to your computer, and you finish downloading a song, it will give you the option of going to your music. hope this helps someone... :]

I will be nicev :-)....I'm a vzw customer..I've been with vzw for a long time..I love my service, phones, customer service, etc..and yes I do complain about how they nickel and dime us but I will put it like this..If u don't want it or it's too expensive then don't get it..I will get this voyager refresh as they call it becuz I've been wanting this phone since before it came out..and there isn't a perfect carrier out there becuz if it were one then everyone would be with that company. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Some ppl like vzw, some ppl like AT&T, Sprint, and so on for whatever reason there is. But anyways I'm getting this phone..

Just got the upgrade free from the VW store. Not a problem at all. Actually I have two Voyagers. I ported my home phone into one,keeping my old home number, and have another as my cell. Frankly I absolutely love the voyager. Got my son the Dare, and I dont think that it is half as good. Anyway, the upgrade is free, the Titanium and the Black are identical in every way. Now with the upgrade there are some minor screen differences. One of which I really do not like at all is the white background with the upgrade (titanium) vs the black background. I really want to leave one of the two that I have with a black background, but the voice mail feature is really kinda nice. I used it several times today, and it is a really nice feature. Having two Voyagers, I have now designated the Black one as my home number, and grey,, (Titanium) as my cell. After all,, for years cell phones were grey and dull anyway,, soooo,, why not. Dont get excited about the change, it really without any taaadaaaa! But for those who desire the software upgrade, the old software version ended with the numbers 07. The "refresh" or Titanium software ends with the numbers 09.

I HATE how you have to go to the store in order to update it... Why can't you download it from your computer like with the iphone???

There should be an OTA push (Over the Air) Firmware upgrade after this last one. So from now on you'll just click update, and it will do it over the air. No going into store. Dare/Chocolate 3 and a few others can already do this. No need to even go home over the internet, It will load right over the VZW network.

I HATE how you have to send your whole Iphony in to get the battery fixed. Why can't you just detach the battery so that I don't have to go a week without my phone?
