That's cool Bobolito. Do you have any new information on the V3xx?

Thanks,
Jay

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

That's not too bad of a looking Nokia, a little square but I would be willing to check it out closer.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I was not aware that it was already released. Thanks

Jay

EDIT: I just looked, $79.99 isn't a bad price. My question is that the V3r and the KRZR both cost more than the V3xx??? That makes no sense. On top of that I think the standard V3 should be a free phone now, not $50.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I agree may be every one should jump in on it as fast as possible before they change their mind.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I must have one now. I was thinking... My friend that I've loaned my V3 to qualifies for an upgrade in March. Maybe I can talk her into letting me take her upgrade, and I'll give her my black V3. Then I qualify for an upgrade in November, and Mom qualifies next March. (My prescious......)

I've set up a comparison. If the website asks for a zip code enter 20164.

I've got the V3, V3xx, V3r, KRZR, and LG CU500.

Go for it.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Their marketing and pricing apparently hasn't caught up with the new releases, which is pretty funny. The V3xx is described as:
"New! Check out the ultra sleek next generation RAZR. .... This sleek phone is loaded with features..."

while the KRZR is still described as:
"... the next generation thin line Motorola phone. It is sleek, stylish, and trendy...yet loaded with high-end features."


:lmao:

I'm gonna call tomorrow and see if I can get an early upgrade. The sales office is closed on Sunday.

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

There's a funny thread about the price difference on HoFo

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I am a bit concerned about the V3xx based on what I saw in this link: http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/01/26/unboxing-motorola-v3xx/ . It seems that it kept loosing its data connection and I hope it was only just one unit.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Yes, that's a very disheartening report, especially since it doesn't seem to be a preproduction unit.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

UPDATE: The standard V3 price has dropped from $49.99 to $29.99 today. This applies to all colors except blue. I have no idea why they are still charging more for blue???

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Do you know if the Krzr is gonna come in different colors? If so when?

Im thinking of getting a t3xx. I hope its as good as the others.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

WG, did you mean the V3xx, in that case you probably want to read the link that hf1khal posted below. I know you don't have 3G in your area yet but the problems might be of some concern to you.

There seems to a few posts now that indicate other people having problems with 3G also. This certainly is not good news for Motorola's first WCDMA phone for the US market

Yes thats what i ment. Thanks for pointing that out. Not good. The only other phones i like is the black jack or the 8525. Your thoughts?

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

You know you are asking a completely biased person this question, to me the Blackjack is "where have you been all my life"?...lol

You know I have had the SX66, 8125, and the QTEK 9100, in my effort to carry only one device and the Blackjack meets my requirements extremely well. What little I gave up in PDA functions (and I admit I do miss my IPAQ sometimes) I got fantastic call clarity, great rf, form factor, and easy one handed operation.

I think this is the perfect opportunity for you to get one play with it and then get the other one.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

ha ha ha, your so bad, charlyee. but then again i think thats why we like you so much.

so so, then the question is, which one do i get, first.:browani:

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Correction Charlyee, Motorola's first WCDMA phone for the US market was the Motorola A845, released almost 3 years ago...

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Ok Jay, I stand corrected but you only get partial credit since the A845 had WCDMA 1900 only

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

*waiting for T-Mobile to activate WCDMA 1700/2100 and Motorola to release another first WCDMA phone for US market*

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I think there is supposed to be a diference between the 2 (in the 3G form). The V3xx is supposed to support 2.6 mbts while teh A845 (based on what I was told) does not.

Keep on waiting for another year. Are you contemplating a move?

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

That's because A845 was just a UMTS phone and V3XX is an HSDPA

Me? Move? Not if I can help it!

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Correction, That was supposed ot be 3.6 (not 2.6)

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

I figured that for a typo, just like ^ot^ was supposed to be to

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

No, I get full credit. You didn't say full 850/1900 WCDMA. You said Moto's first WCDMA phone for the US market. The A845 was a WCDMA phone released for the US market by Motorola about 3 years ago. The A845 does have 850, but only in GSM mode.

 

Re: Cingular Phones Coming Soon! *** UPDATED 11/16/06 ***

Well the US market is both 850 & 1900, so since the A845 only has 1900 WCDMA it covers the partial US market & so you get partial credit. How do you like that for a justification of what I said.? lol

Ok Jay, I will give this one to you but only because it's you (& you are partially right...lol) & that we will both get yelled at for trying to derail this excellent "Sticky"....
