I am pretty sure it is handset dependent. The non-ev-do phone like the Rumor cannot receive call while data activity is happening. However I did notice that the Rumor (unlike previous non-ev-do phones) can finally send texts while data activity is happening. Yay!

Budney & Larry---
Thanks for the replys. I will make sure to research this issue before I purchase a new handset.
I love the power vision, but HATE the fact that I can't get calls. When I am ready to buy, I will make sure I throw it out there for any suggestions you may have that would be better suited for me.

By the way the Rumor has been a major sucess for Sprint and they are currently selling like crazy. Good to finally see Sprint with a major hit phone of their own.

I was in an Alltel store the other day with my sister, and saw their version or the Rumor (the Scoop) and I think it's ugly.. Same phone, I know, but the color schemes are just really ugly. If I had been considering a phone from Alltel, I don't think I would have really looked twice at the Scoop/Rumor just for that reason.

Larry, had I been able to get the Sprint side of SERO in my area I would have got an LG Rumor. I just like the looks of it, the slide out keyboard, and the price for what you get seems very reasonable.

Yeah for $50 it's a great deal for qualified upgraders. Someone sent me a message that Radio Shack is or was selling them for $30 now.

I know the centro is going faster here than the rumor has been.

I think it has been "ok". But honestly it does not have much going for it (green keypad, EDGE). But it is $99.

Larry, how's the Rumor been working for you?

Will you post a review soon?

Yes I will post an updated review soon. Been so busy the past few days and haven't had time to be on here that much.

Looking forward to it, larry.

I'll be doing one for the Voyager very soon too.

Default Re: Got an LG Rumor

my wife and I just purchased the rumor and we love it so far. is it capable of playing music through a stereo bluetooth headset? I have a pair of bluetooth sunglasses that has a stereo headset and I have not seen an option for this, I read a review on cnet that said it was capable
but I haven't been able to find out how yet?

I don't think the Rumor is A2DP (stereo bluetooth) capable. It is not listed as being so on Phonescoop.
