Anybody want to buy a Curitel Identity?
I work in the reselling industry and was given a fully-functional demo to try out. Very interesting phone, ergonomic with great features geared towards a young generation. I havent used this phone much as I swap phones weekly and have this now for sale. I have information, pictures of the actual phone (has two very slight scratches on the top). Please contact me if interested.
Are the fons unlocked or are you selling them with a service agreement. I have a GSM account with Rogers wireless would I be ale to use this phone with my service?

DO YOU STILL HAVE THIS PHONE? HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR IT?
DO YOU HAVE OTHER MODELS ALSO.
DO YOU HAVE OTHER MODELS ALSO.
I know it’s been 20 years but I’d buy it from you if you still have it and if you’re still around..

have you heard anything about sellers for this phone?
😢 This phone is amazing. It's quad band, but not ugly. It's got everything! If anyone has heard any additional info please pass it on. I keep looking at this phone and dreaming! 🤣
TigerDirect has them..... but they are spendy!

Excellent ergonomic design
Think about it. When you push the buttons on your phone, you are holding it at the bottom edge of the phone with your fingers and not your palm. The top half of your phone hangs out of your hand.
Take your avergae bar phone, now flip it around so that the screen is pon the bottom. See how nicely it rests in your entire palm now? And the button placement is now much more in line with your thumb and its natural motion.
I really like this phone. I saw it in Wired last month and am happy to see it's in production. If I can find a way to get one, and have it unlocked for use in the US, I will.

Oh great! I just realized it is offered by CellOne/Dobson in the US! I thought they were a Canadian carrier.

THIS PHONE IS HOT
😎 I wonder why they didn't go with a major carrier. I don't know about anybody else, but as long as people are asking me "where'd you get that phone"? I'm excited about it. And whether someone thinks it's the ugliest thing they've ever seen or the coolest, makes me no difference.
yeah, I agree! I bring my Identity with me everywhere I go, and I got spotlight even from strangers. it's really cool 🙂

Cellular One (dobson)
Cellular one is going to carry this phone on september 15th, not sure if i wanna change to it or if i'm going to still pickup a nokia 7610 unlocked. The Wildseed (what they call it) will be going for around 300 without contract and 200 with a 2 yr contract. Seams like a cool phone, but it's a new idea, it's strange, and i dont think the whole SmartSkin idea will catchon with the makers of the addons too much.
The phone's available right now at most stores. There are 23 SmartSkins available right now. This one's supposed to come in time for the holiday:

WHY?
Why would you want the screen at the bottom? I must admit it is different, but a little to different. It would be very difficult to get use to.
ehhhh......
kinda hard to see whats on your screen when you're typin stuff in. And geez, some people just try too hard to be original

Hardware Addons
The coolest thing about this phone is the abillity to hook up stuff, like say the game controller. Plus it will add software such as games to the phone. Im hoping for other carrier releases on the east coast and a full qwerty keyboard addon. Man the possibilites are endless! Kudos on the design concept.

What About the release date
Man nobody has touched this forum in a long time, kinda of surprising seeing how innovative this phone will be, honestly i've overlooked it and i would honestly get it ova the Motorola V710 if it came out soon enough, doe's anybody at all know anything about a possible release date. This is a real =unique phone and it would be tight to have once school starts, any info at all would help. I hope somebody reply's to this soon since nobody's been on this forum for some time now.

Interesting.
Very nice specs on this phone - I wasn't expecting as much. I'd like to take it for a test drive. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure Dobson doesn't offer any service in my area. ☹️
I have to wonder, though - with all the features on the phone, how long is the battery going to last?

Quadband?!?
Are you sure that this phone support all GSM rates? 🙄
yeah. they were talkin about it before. i am just surprised that this phone is hitting the states rather than overseas. it seems like more of an international concept.

GN Netcom Bluetooth Headset
Did jabra come up with anything new? Because their parent company did and it's as ugly as the motorola headset!!!
Hopefully jabra develops somthing new this season... I'm tired of the same old thing... I own two freespeaks and I'm jsut waiting for the next best thing...
Has anyoen ever tried to hook up a Bluespoon to a Jabra freespeak 2.5mm adapter? I would buy one both I use Sprint, there are no bluetooth phoens yet.. ( yes i know about the t608 but it's like vaporware as far as I'm concerned.... It took way too long to come out.)
Since they annoused the t608, I've alreayd bought three phones since then... I'm on my 19th Sprint phone and counting. My lastest three phones were a 8100. I had a treo 300 but swtiched that out f...

Don't know about the Bluespoon, but I left the Freespeak for an Allways headset a month ago and I'm loving the fresh look and feel of this headset.
It's very light, plus I get to clip it onto my shades, no longer limited to annoying ear clips.

Jabra did introduce the "Freespeak 250", which has "significant improvements in performance", although the press release wasn't very clear on exactly what those improvements are... Here is the announcement:

NEW PHONES
😁 😁 😁 😁 I JUST LOVE SEEING SEXY NEW PHONES WITH THE VERIZON LOGO ALREADY ON THEM.... 😁 😁 😁
different stokes for different folks. you like to see sexy new phones and i would rather watch the Paris Hilton video!!!!!! LOL
😈 👿 well I'm a sprint user. and a sanyo fanatic, so i dont like the verison logo on any new phone.
Any new sanyo's???
Just wondering if you can show us any upcoming sanyo's please thanks
Nice coverage Rich
I'm definetly impressed with the number of bluetooth accessories coming out for phones and how they are used. That PC SMS service is pretty slick. I can't wait until this is a more widely used technology. I guess I'm waiting for a good enough reason to make me get rid of my Panasonic Allure...not that their are not enough tempting reasons already.
