Motorola V60V Now available from Telesales

All,

As of this morning the V60V are available at Sprint store.

No camera (too bad) but will report if it pulls in a signal as well as
my older TimePort.

I live in a weak coverage area (in north Scottsdale). Doing
side-by-side against Sanyo, Samsung (north Scottsdale) and Nokia (in
Seattle) the TimePort got service with the other phones where useless.

Have fun (let the flame wars begin)

Ron

Curious, that no website shows the V60v model available on SPCS's system.
It's not even showing up in the accessories sales web page in SPCS's site.

After even more surfing, Motorola's site doesn't even mention SPCS as a
carrier on their website ...

No, I get snitty when you do it with multiple IDs like you always do. What's
more, I was adding more to the conversation. You really are a hypocrite
Phillipe. You complain about personal attacks and then you list my name as
you have above, put my name in subject lines, misquote my prior comments and
have even tried to impersonate me ... You really are one sick puppy there
Phillipe.

The v60v was just listed recently on phonescoop, meaning it probably
just recently got fcc approval. sprintpcsinfo also claims telesales has
it, but people have called in and said it's not available.

It's probably the old imminent release rigamarole... a small batch will
come in to telesales, it'll get sold out as soon as word hits ths
streets, and we won't see it again until the full launch happens.

It and a new LG phone are both listed in our systems as released.

FWIW, they've given out all the information we're supposed to need to=20
support both phones if a customer calls in with one of them.

Somebody please tell me what is so special with this phone, when the GSM
V60's have been out for almost 3 years now.

Honestly, I don't know. Our information sheet on it lists a 4K color=20
screen, and it does *not* list Vision as a feature of the phone. =20
There was a thread here recently debating the quality of Motorola=20
phones. It *does* seem there's a demand for one, though, based on=20
people who posted there. And, I guess, here they go.

My personal observation is that people who typically use Moto handsets
are very loyal to Moto...

In my case the #1 issues are the ability to get a signal in weak
coverage areas. I get OK service when the Sanyo 8100 and other Sprint
PCS phones are out of service.

Well, Motorola has traditionally done quite well with CDMA. Their CDMA
phones hold a signal pretty tenaciously.

But there are other phones that hold a signal well too.
