Love my chocolate.

Finally got the firmware update so it has speaker phone. :D


Do the people it will randomly call love it as much?
Do you like waiting 5 minutes to do something as simple as set an alarm because the touch buttons come broken right off the bat.
I need a new phone too.

Have yet to have those problems. I have the alarm set to a shortcut key so it only takes a few seconds for me. The only problem I've had with it is the shiny surface get scuffed up easily. I purchased it to have a phone and mp3 player in one. And it has served that purpose very well for me.

Hehehe, I've got some hella ghetto old ones :p
-5 yr old Audiovox, like 6inches tall, monochrome screen, speaker phone, battery coming to the end of its life, antenna broke off
-Motorola T720, comes complete w/ Moto's ubershittyass charging sys (PreUSB), screen is f'ed up tho, displays randomly at times
-Motorola V710, also includes said ubershittyass charger, works fine, good condition, but I can't get it to even start charging, also includes terrible Moto camera

150 for the Audiovox, 200 for either Moto :p
Ck, wanna trade a good Supra part for one?

And I have no probs w/ my Chocolate, all you do is click the End button after youclose the slide and it locks the touch buttons, mine work perfectly fine, and my only real complaints are that the screen is an oil magnet, the numeric keys are a lil on the small side for my huge fingers, and the worst offender: Verizon's new OS. It suck balls. Moto's Synergie (from my 710) was the best phone OS evar!1!!!11!! And T9 sucks, Moto's word recognition was times better. Oh, yeah, last thing, wtf did Verizon need to disable OBEX for??? Gay.......if I wanna transfer pics or music between my phone and computers, why the hell shouldn't I be able to do it over BT? Just cuz they want me to buy some gay $100 useless package w/ a 6" USB Cable....Oh, my bad, edit for one more annoying thing: I always get to know stuff I have to interact w/ really well, so I rarely look at things when I'm using them, but the touch buttons force me to look. Gets annoying when I wanna do something else at the same time...

So, is the speakerphone firmware update available from Verizon? Or did you get it somewhere else?
And PDA Phones suck, your battery will NOT last you. And trust me, when your battery starts losing its capacity in about a year and a half, and it starts dying after just an hour of talk time and useage cuz it cant support it all, you will be PISSED.

Someone has to have the hookup at verizon
I used to have the hook-up but then my sis quit. She was a Verizon Store Manager. I have a couple phones lying around you can have but they are forever old. I don't think they even have full colored screens. But they are all yours if ya want:)

Yep, you have to actually go to the store, and it takes about 20 min. I belive it's the version 4 firmware.
