Well im getting a new cell phone soon with verizon and i get the new every two deal. I was leaning towards the V because of all the capabilities is has. But i was also thinking of the razr and the 8300. I would probably go with the v because all the reviews say it has impressive battery life. That would be a big upgrade from my audiovox cdm 8910, which the battery is very unreliable, i was sort of tricked into buying it. The only turn off of the v is how big it seems. Do any of u have and like it? Does it really seem that big when ur carrying it around? and do the buttons seemed spaced too close for u people with lineman hands? how does the razr and the 8300 stack up to this phone?

My gf has a razr and she's on her fifth one this year...they're horrible. Her brother went thru 2 then switched. Kinda hard to believe that motorola would make such a crappy product. My Nextel i860 Has held up like a champ, is the only one ive had all year and is a motorola as well...So i dunno. Maybe a phone that small is too good to be true. :confused:

Your best phones are Samsung and Motorola! I'm sorry but I bought a LG a few months ago and hated it, what a piece of chit! The hot phone right now is the Samsung a-930. Dual antenna and everything! I couldn't afford to buy it so I bought its younger sister and I'm totally happy with it. My wife has the razr and thats a great phone also, she loves it!!

I recently bought a phone straight out from Verizon and it killed me to spend $200 on a decent phone, not a great phone but a decent one. Some people will spend $300!!!! Its called keeping up with the Joneses and its something I don't need to do. My situation I had no choice and had to suck it up:mad:

i just got the 8300 last week and it is sick!!
It is an MP3 phone but Verizon will not tell you that, because they disabled the mp3 part, so you would use v cast to get music for 2.99 each!
I got the phone for for $50.00 with a $50.00 mail in rebate through amazon.com they have special now for $30.00 + 50.00 rebate.
I looked at the raze v3m 8300 and the chocolate. all the reviews point to the 8300

2 friends got the chocolate and they wish now they got the 8300.

I order the phone and in 2 day got it called Verizon to port my old number it only took 5 minutes ( you can get a one year contract too)
look at this site to enable mp3 and make free ringtones
all you need is the phone Micro sd card and a way to read the card (i use my digital camera) to get mp3's to you phone.

I think if you port an old # the rebate dont work but than again the phone is only $30.00 and its $130.00 through verizon wireless!!!!

get it
