V600 - Most anticipated vaporware in the history of cell phones?

12-01-2003, 10:09 PM

Has any other cell phone been this anticipated in the history of cell
phones?

I kinda remember the excitement surrounding Nokia 8890 (first Nokia
tri-band GSM phone, I think) and the Nokia 2160 (my first LCD TDMA
phone, neat!), and my very first cell phone, a all-black Motorola
UltraClassic II, which I paid almost $2K for in 1988 (and my first
phone bill from LA Cellular was $1300 with no roaming).

But the V600? Geez, no one will shut up about it. I think everyone is
going to own one, if it ever comes out...

12-14-2003, 05:47 PM

is the v400 the same as v600?

Cingular is telling us it's the 400 but on motorola's page it is v600?

The V400 is the same as the V500/V525 that is available in Europe. The V600
is the V600 no matter where you get it.

Nope, they're not the same. Both do cover GSM 800 900 1800 1900
the V400 is slightly smaller; weighs a bit more; has less talk/standby
times; does not have bluetooth; doesn't have custom faceplate
covers; doesn't support multiple languages; doesn't PC Sync;
don't have Ringer ID or Profiles; doesn't have SyncML; does not
have USB. All those items listed that the V400 doesn't have, the
V600 does. So, no, I don't think they are the same phone!

Could anyone tell me if either of these phones allow you to take jpeg photos
from your computer and store them on your phone for viewing?
