They are now giving the new Verizon LG VX6000 color photo phone away for
FREE in the Atlanta GA marketing area with a new two year contract this
week. I switched from Sprint which has reasonable service to Verizon which
has great service two weeks too soon after my old 6035 Sprint phone was
stolen and it cost me $100. Bummer!

TIP
Just for the fun of it I created a LG VX6000 email reflector on Yahoo Groups
the other day.
An existing Yahoo group mentioning the VX6000 is run by someone with out a
clue in how to deal with people while running an email list. IMHO the VX6K
is too neat to be spoiled anyone with personality problems! BTW VX6K at
yahoo is setup to nail spammers as most of us consider them scum also.
Some of you may know me by my handle 4phun and the various 4phun lists over
the years. This is another project to help others just 4phun! If you have
been a member of a previous 4phun list send me a note using this address
[email protected]. You get to go to the 'head of the class' ;>)
Others may have to wait as there is a limit on how many new addresses may be
added on any given day at Yahoo now. New Yahoo membership accounts are still
FREE as long as you read each Yahoo screen carefully and avoid any option
that may cost money. With any Yahoo account you may join an unlimited number
of email groups. Be sure to set up a new account with both your Verizon PCS
email address and a regular PC based address. There is a trick to use both
(actually up to five addresses may be used) when you join a Yahoo email
group. For now have any Yahoo group you are a member of send email to
anything but to your phone unless you know what you are doing or have deep
pockets! We will get into why later. You may even grab a new web based Yahoo
email address if you haven't done so already. That will come in handy as we
shall see in future tips.
The new group is simply [email protected], the reason for such a short
name is that it is a bear to have to type into the VX6K any text such as an
address when you are in a hurry. Off course if you add it to your contacts
list in the phone all you have to do is point and click to send your photo
on its way.
If any of this interests you or if you would just like to have a place to
share some of you candid phone photos 'just for fun' then send an email to:
[email protected]
BTW another group I belong too is [email protected], this small
group shows one use for small phone or web photos in sharing information
among peers. You may like to check it out also.
The purpose of that group is to provide a vehicle to exchange VX6000 photos
with just one click address. It can also serve as a platform to exchange
news on photosharing on Verizon as well as tips about the VX6K. As I get
around to it I plan to add detailed instructions in the files area for
'newbie's on the quirks of the VX6K. This group is more of a test bed to
give you ideas of how to create your own private or public email list to
distribute your digital photos.
Anyone, even Sprint users, can take the idea of what I have done and do it
for themselves to share photos with friends and family or other associates.
Yahoo gives you 30 MB to store photos if you set up your group correctly as
one for sharing digital photos and also 20 MB more for more files or more
photos to make a total of 50 MB online storage for free. Yahoo does not
store photos from routine email messages anymore so if you do not set your
settings to receive individual messages you will never see the photos in
your email messages. VX6K at Yahoo sends photos back as attachments. More on
setting up your own photogroup later.
Maybe a web BLOG for photos may suit your needs better? As a group we will
discuss how to set them up also.
To reach me privately if you have difficulty in joining or using Yahoogroups
please send an email to
List owner: [email protected]
I will be right busy with more important matters through the end of the year
so please bear with me and allow me time in getting back to you. Remember
this is all just 4PHUN.
