Will we be able to update software to the v3m version if we want to take advantage of the VCast Music Feature?
...
don't really have too many specs on the phone, just the release date. from what i heard it is a different phone with a card slot. that has been the trend with vcast music. you wouldn't want a phone that you can download music and only have 30MB of storage space. would be pretty silly you know.
...
My VZW business rep did mention last week that new software was coming out for the RAZR in April, but no mention of new hardware.
...
it sounds like your talking about the v3i. (check out the specs on this site) i haven't heard anything about it coming to verizon though.
...
Yes Verizon is getting one. This one has vcast music. This summer Verizon will be getting the razr with itunes. That ones still in the make.
...
i to heard that the razr is coming out with the memory card and the vcast music....also that this version or other verizon motorola phone will be able to listen to music through bluetooth headset...now I'm not sure if it will be on the regular ear pieces but you will be able to do it on the full blue tooth headsets that go behind your head....i forgot the number of them
...
You can only listen to music via Bluetooth through a STEREO Bluetooth headset, just as you can now with the other Bluetooth/MP3/VCAST MUSIC phones. You will never be able to listen through a regular Bluetooth headset as these are for AUDIO only. It doesn't have to do with the handset, but rather the headset.
...
its great that you "heard" it was coming. as it stands, cingular is getting the v3i first, then somewhere down the road, verizon will get it. so don't hold your breath for a razr with a memory card slot. it took verizon 2 years to release the regular razr headset so i wouldn't look for a hardware update in the near future. p.s. verizon sucks(even though they're my carrier)
...
Well as they sat to each his own. I am sorry to hear that you think Verizon sucks...I think they are the better carrier....ive had verizon for some 10 years now and have never had a majoe problem...no more than any other person on any other carrier.... i even had the V710 and loved it...the only reason i went to my lg8100 was cause it was free and i wanted to try it out...and yes i like it. But i like motorola better... and im sure it might take a while for verizon to come out with i believe you will see it sooner then you think.....puls ilke being able to send and recieve video on my phone with out having to have some media package evenif i dont get a txt plan....So HORRAY FOR VERIZON>...They have never let me down. 😁
...
verizon has good coverage. but everything else sucks. they charge for text messages, they remove all the cool features that your phone is SUPPOSED to have, and theyre always about a year and a half behind the current headset technology. if they could get the new phones first, i have no doubt they would rule the cell phone world. as it stands, theyre technology is a dollar short and a day late. if they want to remove features, thats fine. we can hack them back on the phone, i guess.
...
its not new hardware the v3c will receive a new software upgrade in April to and the VZ navigator feature that allows you to use your phone as a GPS device it will also add the vcast music feature just so that all vcast model phones can access the vcast music service , verizon will be getting there own version of the v3i that has a memory card slot but that is not untill later this year possibly mid summer as cingular has a 6 month exclusivity right to the phone as they did on the original razr v3
...
The reason i say that it is a different phone is because the V3C only has 30MB of space!!! Thats how many songs stored on the phone?!?! The trend for VCAST Music phones is that they all have card slots to store the songs. 😛

then where is it?
...
don't hold your breath on it. the v3m was just announced by motorola. so verizon has to go through its whole stupid process of approving a phone(even though its the same as the v3c, except it has a memory card slot). sure, it may be available for purchase(in some country), but verizon probably won't have it for at least 8 months. plus, verizon has to burn out its current stock of razr's before it gets a new model in. maybe the v3m will be here for christmas?
