The Chocolate is now a Flip phone? WTF? I thought the fact that it was a Slider was part of it's appeal....

Well remember there are already Chocolate Flip phones,,, this could be it's successor, but they could also name is Chocolate 3 at the same time.

Actually there aren't any. If you're talking about the 8600, that was never referred to as the chocolate by LG. It might have been called that by employees and customers, but definitely not by LG.

but then again, the 8700 was refered to the shine by lg but verizon refused to use the shine name. the same could be for the chocolate flip. in canada, telus does refer to the 8700 as the shine.

Is it just me or does the blue on the back of the decoy look extremely tacky...?

anyone know if you'll need the nationwide plan for the dare?

If it has an HTML browser you will need to be on the NATIONWIDE plan.

Looks like the VX8600 and the Chocolate 2 had sex and the outcome is the is Chocolate 3. Good Improvments on the C3 though. 1gig internal, FM transmitter, and 2.0MP Camera now. We have the Decoy at the store. It looks way Shiny... (Think Chrome) and the blue on the back is not as bad as people think. It's a pretty dark blue.. The dare is going to be a big seller. The dare will be great for all those people that leave because of the new Iphone, and then come back to VZW because they thought the grass was greener on the other side... and then realized it's brown and hasn't been watered in years. lol. It happened last year, and it will happen again.

the 6900 is the best phone verizon has right now, if only it used android.

its possible to load up a beta version of it, but it has limited functionality

if it hasnt been 30 days you can take it back and wait on the dare

I'm hoping I'll be getting the Dare, otherwise I'll just go with the Voyager. I wanna try out the Dare first though.

dont bother with the voyager, either get the dare, or the successor to the voyager which is coming this fall
