Motorola makes some really good phones. I really like my V400. The only thing is the nicer the phone gets the more PISSED OFF I get when I drop it.

Any release dates? I'm still waiting to hear when the V80 will be released in the states. :(

Awesome phone! Any more pics?

What provider is that for? It might be replacing my V400 :)

My friend told me September.

It is GSM so that rules out Verizon.

Most likely Cingular or AT&T.

Looks GSM to me.

Whatever, I don't think Motorola is doing terribly well for itself in the CDMA market anyway. For now I'm sticking to Sanyos. I'm still amazed my last two were made in Japan.

The new V710 looks to be a good seller.

I may have to pick one up unless the new Samsung is better.

We haven't gotten our hands on a V710. Look at what a great phone the T720 is:roll: There's a reason Sprint dropped Motorola from their lineup a few years ago. They're testing the waters tho with the V60V or something like that.

Its kinda like how they dropped Nokia years ago and now that they've proven themselves with the 3585i we've got two other ones that seem to be quite good.

why? because i don't fall for buying frivolous electronics that don't do anything better then the base model

somehow being economical makes me a waste of air. That seems odd

Yeesh. You're like this fairly high-up engineer who drives a nice, beat-up Gremlin to work everyday.

Just remember, while being economical is always smart, you can't take it with you:)
