I love the huge External Color LCD And its one of the thinnest Motorola iDen Phones SO FAR

But I wonder why Only Motorola Likes to make iDen Phones?

Got mine on on release day ..... its a nice phone but the button activated flip cover takes alittle getting used to. The cover feels a bit cheap also not as solid as the i730.

I drive an 04TL and have Nextel as my svc provider, ... I WANT BLUETOOTH!!! I even have the hardwire kit with the cradle for my i830 sitting in an unopened box in the closet that I was going to install in the TL. I decided against it since the HFL is so cool, I didn't want to have anything sway my decision on getting the first available bluetooth phone from Nextel.

Played with the i860, WOW! Cool screen, actually looks small but yeah the flip button is kinda weird and takes a bit getting use to. Wonder how sturdy that flip thing is. I played with a friends for a while and found myself pressing the flip botton over and over again. How addicting! lol

hey i never understood why people with nextels want bluetooth. i dont have a nextel, but doesnt it do the same thing. as in the whole thing about blue tooth is the wireless thing. to talk without have to hold the phone in your ear.. nextels have speakers, so doesnt this do the same function? sorry it might just be me.. but just wondering..

Do you drive a TL? Do you use the HFL? How do you compare the HFL in the TL to Nextels speakerphones? Enough said.
