LG Chocolate 3 VX-8560

so ya i purchased the chocolate 3 yesterday, and don't get me wrong i love it, but i have 3 questions:

1. is there no place for a charm to go? im thinking the 2 little rubber things on the back come off and there will be a place to put it, but its not looking promising....

2. are there any clear hard plastic clip on covers for it yet? or do you think that they will come out with them in the near future? =\ i had one on my 8600, and have grown to hate the leather cases, but i don't wanna fingerprint up my choc3 =\

3. any idea where i can find information on when verizon will have the software out to transfer contacts from the 8600 to the choc3? or do i just gotta call the store to find that out? =\

thanks in advance... 🙂

I recently picked up the choco 3 and I really like the phone.
I upgraded from a samsung a950 which was a tank and a good phone to use.
One of the gripes i have about the phone is the fact that they left out a vibrate option for the alarms. I could set alarms to vibrate on my a950 but was a little disappointed when I realized I couldn't do it.
Anyone think verizon will add it in a software update?
-ps. choco 3 is still a great phone :]

so i had a friend transfer an mp3 over to me via bluetooth yesterday to try it out, and it said it was sending it and i received it (or so i thought), but now i cant find it....

any clues as to where the files go after they get transferred?

thanks in advance! 🙂

Just wondering if you can transfer pictures and music via bluetooth? It would be nice if Verizon didn't disable it this time around.

Not EVERY time I use the front navigation wheel...but about 25 to 30 percent of the time, it doesn't work. I took phone back and got a replacement and this one does it to.
Especially if I get two text messages close together.
That seems to set it off.
Must be a software issue...who would I report it to? The VZW guy seemed less than helpful.

This looks like a good phone... LG has
never let me done. Yet the way I read the
highlights of the phone There is no
jack for a hands free jack.
Did I read it wrong?

i need to know 2 thinks about this phone in the real world.
1) how is the reception compared to the samsung 550. i read the samsung beat out the lg 8350.

2) how is the battery life

thanks

I was the first person to purchase this phone at my local Verizon Wireless store on Sunday morning! Although I have not had ample time to truly "kick the tires" on all functionality (especially music), I am happy to report this is a quality phone.

Pros:
Excellent color displays inside and out
Terrific sound quality
Love the new user interface -- very intuitive
Micro USB adapter
ICE (in case of emergency) contact set up is an excellent addition

Cons:
Vibrate mode is a bit weak

This phone is recommended for anyone looking for the latest in flip phones!

yay! Now I kinda want one.

I used to have the Fusic on Sprint, and absolutely loved that feature (just hated Sprint). Shame you can't unlock vzw phones to work on AT&T.

My parents upgraded to the current slider chocolate about 2 months ago and I don't like it. I love the clamshell and the the light blue one is pretty.(saw the pics on engadgetmobile.com) I plan on porting my number to
VZW @ the end of the year and I was considering this phone but I really like the new EnV2.

I heard this thing comes out in July but does anyone have an exact date?
