Motorola V710 for Verizon Wireless

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.verizon (More info?)

Ok, ok here are the facts...

1. We've got the motorola contest for the v710 that ends on July
10th 2004 (This suggests that the phone should be released at least a
month before then).

2. Those FCC pics suggest that the phone will be released by
Verizon. It may also be released by Sprint given the phone is CDMA.

This is no longer a time for speculation. Today is the 13th of May
and with a little luck the phone will be released by some provider in
about a month (I hope they don't screw us with the price). This is the
time to pray. Anyone who likes VW likes them for their coverage. Now
we just want that damned bluetooth. Welcome to the waiting game. I'm
still waiting for my 2004 Prius that I ordered at the end of October.
Damn you Bluetooth! (it's a love hate relationship)

Unfortunately I've read the BT in the V710 will only work with headsets.
supposedly won't connect with palm or IPAQ. If so, I'm leaving verizon for
T-Mobile so I can use bluetooth to connect to plam/ipaq & to my bluetooth
equipped car.

I want to use it with the hands free module integrated into my car. If it
can't do that then Verizon can kiss me goodbye. I'm living in the 21st
century.

Unfortunately T-Mobile has sparse-to-no coverage where I am so they aren't
an option, so I guess it will be either Cingular or smoke signals. Which is
more dependable?
