Motorola v260 in Verizon Corporate Stores?

[NAHokie]

Does anyone know when (if?) the Verizon corporate stores will begin stocking the Motorola v260? I've seen it in RadioShack, but they can't give the $100 credit for the new-every-two program.

I want to get a tri-mode flip phone with a color screen, an external display, and NO camera. The v260 sounds like it would have the best RF reception of the Verizon cameras meeting that criteria.

The moto 265 has been in stores for a month or two now.... If you are out of contract I'll be more than happy to fedex you the 265.

My local corporate store has the v265, but that's got a camera on it. I'm interested in the v260 (color tri-mode, external display, and NO camera). Radio Shack sells it for Verizon, but the corporate stores around here don't have it yet and don't know if they'll ever get it. Radio Shack can't give it to me under the New-Every-2 plan though.

I was back at my local corporate store at lunch today and they're not selling any color tri-mode, non-camera phones with an external display. Is there anything coming down the pipeline that fits that discription?

I don't think corporate will be selling the v260... why not go with the v265 and just not use the camera? The price is dropping to $49.99 on the 26th.

The only thing I can think of is that NAHokie might not be able to take a camera phone to work?

My work takes me to places that I can not take a camera so I need a cell phone with no camera.

Ask Verizon if buying a phone at RS negates your New Every 2. You should be able to apply it to your NEXT phone.
