Is the Pearl a great phone or what? I luv the way it looks and its size, as of right now I have the Mint Blue Chocolate, a big improvement from the first one, but am thinking about the new motorola slider or the pearl from Blackberry. I am a verizon customer.

Oh Verizon I am so TIRED of waiting for you to come out with some descent phones! I love the network but frankly AT&T’s lineup is pretty tempting about now!!

Any info on the 8905 or coupe? Although the razr 2 looks tempting, the UI lag will most likely be twice as bad as the previous versions. Im looking to upgrade soon, and was planning on the vx8900. Thanks for the mystery phones verizon!

Looks like Verizon came out today and said the the RAZR2 comes out NEXT month…which makes this spreadsheet wrong and totally unreliable for the rest of the information…

ATT Executive offices are in ATL not Verizon — Verizon Executive offices are in NJ.

VZW is releasing the Pearl this September is what was said when I called the Executive offices in Atlanta to find out about the GPS for the 8830. I asked the girl about the curve and she said let me check , and said nope nothing on the sheet for this year. As for GPS and the 8830 there only enabling it for VZNavigator. I am sure many already know this but when ever a new phone/pda comes out VZW takes 6 months after to release there crippled piece of Sh__ interface and even than they cant work all the bugs out.

As far as coverage, AT&T, and Verizon in my area and where I travel are equal, there is NO difference, and the data speeds there is NO noticeable difference at all. None Nada Zip, they are two different technologies and each one is going to have its great points and its bad points. For me its the customer service, billing, and repairs

what a depressing lineup. i was kinda expecting a bb curve. and my NE2 is up soon and i might as well just get the old Q seeing as how the new Q9m is pretty much a repackaged Q with WM6 =/

What ever happened to verizon’s “answer to the iphone” that they claimed the day after the iphone came out…?

Yea but it’s not very hard to beat AT&T’s coverage.

I am a VZW customer and because of the reliability and strong network I will always be. However, I used the I phone last week (one of my employees got it) and despite the fact that it does not have wireless sync it is certainly far and away the best most innovative phone out there. What does VZW have coming out that will compete with it. Lets be honest here, the Q, Treo’, BB (at least the ones VZW has) are all tired. What is coming up that is worth the wait?

Verizon stills sucks. I mean c’mon you can’t beat cingulatt’s smartphone/pda lineup.

There is plenty of other spreasheets with other devices. I’ve played with the i760 and have pictures of the dummy units in store. I also have other info not posted here.

You take that for what its worth though.

@evan
the pearl2 is the next big BB on the horizon, although the curve has been offered in Wifi, no clue if they have optioned for it yet. I know att was trying to get an exclusive with RIM for the curve wifi, so who knows. the BB pearl due out in the holiday season will have wifi though, and it looks GOOD in my hands now

It’s in the Howard Forum site. I’ll try to get the link up here later on. It’s either on a portion of the spreadsheet you can’t see on this site or on a different spreadsheet.

By: Paul

Also in the spreashseet is a Samsung Gleam u700, supposedly similar to the LG Shine, hence the name ‘Gleam’.

By: Paul

Paul — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 15:15:34 +0000

Actually it does show a Blackberry 8130,supposedly a Pearl according to rumors. Its
listed on the spreadsheet.
