Will This Phone Live Up To Its Potential?
Just wondering if anyone has some comments based on their familiarity with Samsung and/or they know something about this phone.

Back to the case at hand...
True, this phone is a bit large... comparable to the LG 8000, but it fits well in the hand. The menus are well laid-out. It's the usual Verizon menu system, on par with the LG 8100 menu. The inside screen is great, vibrant and a good size, although nothing out of the ordinary for a V-Cast phone. The real treat is in the camera. It does have the 2X optical zoom.

Does anyone know if you can set up your own ringtones on this phone because if you can't then it wouldn't be worth it for me to pay Verizon for ringtones I don't want.

y pay for the ringtones when there are 100's of sites that allow u to get it for free or for a small price (like 3guploads.com which i think is like $9 for a year or something)
The problem is that sometimes the phone will not allow you save a clip as a ringtone. You might be able to send it your phone but unless the option is there then it's not worth it.
I know with the 8000 you could send a clip through vtext and then save it as a ringtone. The 8100 only allows you save the sound in the "My Sounds" folder but doesn't give you the option of using it as ringtone unless you hack the phone. The only ringtones that you could save with the 8100 were the ones of off Get It Now.
