Looking for New Verizon Phone
So my 1 yr contract is done in August and I'll renew so I can get a new phone. I've had the v60 and the v60s over the past 2 years.
Features I would like:
Speakerphone
Camera
Anything else cool? Fill me in on the details
Most importantly, I need durability. If anything has a metal case that would be great. My first v60 was missing about 1/4 of the paint on the shell, so you know I abuse these things.
Thanks Guys

The VX-8100 also adds Bluetooth and a miniSD card slot. However, it appears that a certain carrier has imposed their infamous "crippling" on these features. First, the Bluetooth feature only supports the Headset, Handsfree, and Dial-Up-Networking profiles - no OBEX. As for the card slot, in our hands-on tests, the miniSD card slot was strictly limited to playing MP3s loaded onto the card from a PC or other source. The card could not be used to store or transfer photos or videos, nor transfer ringtones, wallpapers, etc.

Shawn S…. Patiently waiting for the 8100 or something comparable.

How about the 6255i, get an unlocked one and activate it on VZW.

I love my LG6100. The reception is great and I don't believe I've dropped any calls since moving to Verizon from Sprint. I also had AT&T before and Verizon is by far been the best. I'm pretty much a Verizon person for life unless they somehow screw things up and their reliability goes down the tube.
