doubtful, this has been a rumor for 2 years now. Just for kicks I ask people all the time if they heard anything abotu VZW getting the IP and they all say "oh yeah they are!". Then i ask friends (and family) that work for verizon and they tell me "not a shot". The reality of it is that apple is/once considered maiking a phone that is similar to the iphone for VZW. But still, no molten composites are hitting molds anytime soon. But i dont want to burst anyone's bubble so... Hey guys, did you hear that Verizon might ("might" being a word thats been hanging in limbo for over 2 years now) be getting the iphone???



Movng on:

I have used a Voyager (LG VX1000) since it came out 2+ years ago.


it has the touchscreen outside which is fun for a while, but it opens up to the qwerty board on the inside if need be and you get tired of the touchscreen. someone up ^^^ mentioned that they want something smaller than the voyager... with that "compacting of size" comes a loss of features (like a qwerty keyboard) so caveat emptor.

I have considered the LG Dare, it stinks because its only touch screen and although decently accurate... it will frustrate you.. I have considered the BB Storm and that phone is just plain terrible, a complete letdown. Both of these phones would have been free to me, all i would have to do is swap them at the store and still i did not choose either.

The only other phones i would consider leaving the Voyager for would be the Blackberry Curve and maybe (strong and iffy maybe) the LG ENV2. My obvious phone choice is the iphone (even though its all touch too), but i will never leave verizon so that is out.


dont get sidewinded by all the new touchscreen "tweener" phones, they are all just knockoffs of already knocked-off iphones. Best thing to do is go to Verizon and play with all of them.

Cliffs notes:

My top 3 best
1. LG voyager
2. BB Curve
3. LG ENV2



My top 3 letdowns
1. BB storm
2. LG Dare
3. BB pearl


then again, read my sig....
