LG V VX-9800
VZW's Answer to the Sidekick
Guys, this is VZW's answer to the Sidekick/Moto a630. Think about this phone as a web/email/SMS device with some good PDA functionality for a minute....... Now, Sidekick competitor? What do you say?
...
it is like the A630 but with more goodies. put this phone against a sidekick is a different story. true this phone has some goodies that the SK2 doesnt but the SK2 is more like a PDA than this phone is. one the SK2 gets updated or maybe replaced with the SK3....things will be better.
...
I'm trying to think how the SK2 can compete with this
SK2 - QWERTY keyboard, low end camera, speakerphone, semi-full web capability
9800 - QWERY keyboard, 1.3 megapixel, stereo speakers, mp3 player, VCAST, bluetooth, removable memory...
SK2 - QWERTY keyboard, low end camera, speakerphone, semi-full web capability
9800 - QWERY keyboard, 1.3 megapixel, stereo speakers, mp3 player, VCAST, bluetooth, removable memory...

Yes, I'd love to have a 1.3 mp camera, stereo speakers, an mp3 player, bluetooth, removable memory, and a larger screen, but I wouldn't trade any of them for the SK2's browser and T-Mobile's 20 dollar unlimited data plan.
It's a waste to have a wap browser on a phone with a QWERTY keypad and EV-DO data speeds.

The kicker for me would be if you could view regular HTML sites from the 9800. If they added this than I could say,
Me too! 😁
Until then I will wait. 🙂

I think this phone is way better, but you cant beat the 20 dollar sidekick plan, unlimted web browser, unlimited txt, unlimited email, unlimited aim...I have verizon and like 2000 txt messages cost 20 dollars. So hopefully they can make a plan similar to tmobile

Never in a million yrs!! T-mobile bends over backwards and will give their customers the clothes off the proverbial company's back. Thats what a company has to do that has vastly inferior call coverage and IMO inferior products. VZW will not bend and why should they? They have the lowest rate of customers leaving them for other carriers in the country. They offer great service. Yes the price of this service is steeper at times but I would rather have a service that is reliable than to be hoodwinked into going with a company because of a sexy spokesperson or "the most anytime minutes" on a crappy service.
