They are in the stores as i posted before...very dope phone...

some people already started posting about them on howard forums..

 

 

whats dope about it?

 

ah...actually that is pretty dope.

EVDO
512 mb internal + mini SD
1280x960 1.3mp camera
3d graphics engine
2 speakers for stereo sound
bluetooth
msn messenger...

etc

 

Lg with bluetooth...you have to understand that vzw is a little behind the cool factor on phones...

so when something cool does come out everyone gets excited...

 

dude u look white! cool phone

 

Maybe I will look into this when I look into the North American Dialing since Verizon is the only company that appears to have something like that.

 

you travel that much to canada?

 

Actually I do, more than I'd like to admit sometimes. Send me a PM with some info on the North American dialing plans if you get a chance, I believe you still work for Verizon?

 

so will we see this phone in stores this week or not?

 

looks like friday

 

Got the phone yesterday!!!! I love it!!!

 

Got any good clean shots of the camera?

 

Well I don't exactly know how to transfer pics from cell to pc but I'll tell u that the pic quality is very very good. Video aint bad as long as the movements aint too quick. Another cool thing is that u can use the camera even when closed. With the phone closed u hold the camera button on the side for a second or 2 and the front screen shows what the camera is viewing. Pretty convinient for the hell of it. That way self portraits or 2 people personal shots are not crooked.
All the other pics of it I've seen are online and they aint too bad.

 

So is it available already??? Or do we have to wait until Friday???

 

Well I got mine in a Circuit City. This was after I called a bunch of VZW stores and they said they didn't have it. (strange I know) At CC there were only 5 available anyway so I hopped on it when I called them and asked them to reserve it for me. Sure enough I was the only customer who knew it was around this time.

 

How much did u pay for it???

 

i think outta my pocket Im gonna end up payin $100

 

it is out today....in the ny metro area....

 

Wanna send me the info on NA dialing there Mikey?

 

cant wait till my agreeement is up in January, my 6000 is beat up pretty bad.

 

too bad you can only use a small percentage of the available memory from what i hear

 

Wow, that sounds like a good deal! Are u an existing customer??? New customer??? Does this include any discounts or rebates???

 

Any idea when it comes out for Cali???

 

sorry for the delay..i'll grab it this weekend....I am only part time so i am not in the store a whole lot....

I wont forget you...

 

not a clue...some peopel said some stores are seling it...

i think it is on a case by case basis...

 

Yes I am a customer. There's a $50 rebate for the phone.
Plus I'm in the new every 2 deal.
Also w/ the phone I got a free package that includes a car changer and stereo headphones....sweet

 

No such thing as "FREE"....you paid for it...50 bucks..check your receipt....

 

No problem, I wasn't sure if you were there daily. I might stop by a store, but any info you can provide would be great. Can you do sales over the phone and take some commission off the sale?

 

Na, thats why they have tele-sales...and you south jersey odd's are I cant touch your account...(it is divided my region)....thanks for looking out...I'll have the info this weekend..

 

So if they told me it was promotional thing, said to me it was free, and if I check my reciept and it's not, can I fight it off and actually get it for nothing.

 

I called my local Circuit City and Verizon stores on Tuesday and they both gave me the typical “never heard of that phone” line.
I have some time to kill after work tonight so I’m gonna run over to the Verizon store in person tonight and bang some heads together.

 

Hey Mikey… Any chance the data cable from my LG-VX4500 will work on the 8100?

My Dell laptop doesn’t have a serial connector and my 4500 data cable is USB.
I see the 8100 cable is serial only which means I’ll need a USB-serial adapter.

 

im going to the verizon store today, and if they dont have it i can just pick one up when i go to new york tomorrow

 

which is better the vx8100 or the new moto e815?

 

my parents just got the new e815 and i've been fooling around with it the past couple days, i think its going to be a tough decision. I'll get the vx8100 and if after 15 days i don't like it any better i'll tade it in for the 815

 

Think they would just return it...for you...your going to need most the stuff anyway...good luck with that..

 

The specs from the phone have yet to come out yet...usually it says on the box. of the data cables...but we dont even have holsters in...so we have to wait a bit for the data cables ...

think they know which one is which on howard forums...they are way passed me on the small stuff...

 

Yea I get u. I think the deal is pretty sweet anyway. Individually all those things together are almost double what you get it for.

 

the port from the 4500 and the 8100 are different. you will have to get another data cable. IT IS OFFICIAL............THE 8100 IS LAUNCHING FRIDAY (tomorrow) THE 15TH
