So I know every1 has been saying 6256i will never make it to a verizon store but the 6236 wasnt advertized on the nokia website 4 Verizon 4 very long and the flip has 4 a long time and I just recently heard roumors about RazR goin 2 Verizon...So what is all ur oppinions on that? do u think ill be able 2 get it from a store cuz I dont want 2 go through any hassle at BB..Or should I just get the 6236i? The only bad part would be it not having bluetooth..Otherwise I compared and they r pretty much the same..Can any1 tell me?

From what I've read VZW will not offer the 6256i instore,only thru indirects like BestBuy & RadioShack.The 6236i and the 2128i will be their "offical" Nokia options.Seems to me that VZW doesn't like this phone.They disabled key features(the mp3 player)and the setting of mp3 files as ringtones.Maybe they don't want any high-end Nokias to compete with their beloved LGs,Samsungs,and Motos. 🙄

YES, THE ANSWER IS YES. My ultimate proof is that yesterday in the mail, amongst the usual junk mail advertising, was a one page ad from Verizon with a picture of the 6256i , which is the only reason why I stopped to read junk mail. That ad said that the 6256i is at VzW stores and it was urging people to hurry and take advantage of the offer. -Lorna

Good. Then maybe they'll finally have some GetItNow ringtones available fo' the 6256. I'm jus' amazed VZW has been so childish 'bout GIN support fo' the thing.. is it 'cus it has full obex an' they don' like that, or is it 'cus its only been available thru the indirects? Who knows.

Tho' I have been gettin' by jus' fine wit' the two or three built-in Nokia tones that are good. Out of like 30, lol.

In fact I don't mind the ringtones, but I like gadgets, so am interested in changing them out and getting variety. All in all, though, I am ok with the ringtones. I started with ELVES and now have that Latin melody, something like MODUNO. For a while I had Chopin. All who call me hear Cristina Aguilera singing "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.

I love BlueTooth! 🙂

That's Great News! 😁 By the way ,what was the special that VZW sent to you? The 6256i really is a nice phone hopefuly they will give it the support it deserves. As of 12/15 no ringtones yet.....

Not one other person has confirmed this. Until it is confirmed, this goes under the wishful thinking category.

I repeat: the flyer with the photo of the 6256i Nokia on it was a VzW advertisement. It came from VzW. It needs no substantiation like laymen's opinions need substantiation. VzW is the horse's mouth; everything else is hearsay. -Lorna

But you're the only who has seen it and you threw it away. It's not Verizon's credibility in doubt--it's yours. Unless you're the only one out of millions of customers Verizon sent the flyer to.

I wouldn't question lorna's credibility.. she's hasn't proven herself to be a wild rumor-mongerer in the time she's been here.

If it was an account that was made jus' yesterday, or that had numerous troll posts made on it, then you might have reason to suspect. Neither of those would describe lorna.

Even if I did not throw it away you still would not see it in my hands. I would gain nothing by lying, but if you choose not to believe, be my guest. I have no horses running in this race. -Lorna

I purchased my 6256i from a Verizon Authorized dealer on the Upper West Side of Manhattan last Thursday. So I can verify that this phone is made available and it wasn't through a third party store like Radio Shack, CC, or Best Buy!!!

I love this phone.
