haha They call it the "Power Bar".

[kikdapik]

Digital voice memo recorder with up to 50 minutes of record time (up to 20 memos)
1.6” LCD display with 65,536 colors
Talk Time = 5.5 hours
i guess it is a power bar

[R2X]

woha! Does sanyo offer an alarm clock now?

It says "Alarm Clock"

[R2X]

Also the size is almost 100% percent the same as the Nokia 6225

[phonecellar]

This is probably my next phone. Don't need a camera, don't need a flip. Don't need to spend more than 300 Bucks. Can't wait to see it in person. If its well built and bug free, i'll pay up.

Yes, starting with the 8200. You must have missed all the other threads where this was discussed. ;)

Is the rebate on this phone $150 w/ a 2 year AA?

[The 8]

what in the world is someone gonna do with 50 minutes of voice recording???
65,536 colors? is that good?? what phone is that comparable to??
I LIKE THE POWER BAR!!

[tkrandall]

according to a card I got at RS, yes, it is $150 with 2 years, and $100 with 1 year.

But I am on a $29.99 plan so will not qualify for any rebate unless I upgrade.

The 65K colors seems to be the standard in Sanyo's latest phones...

Waiting for a release date and a review. :eyebrow:

anyone posted a price yet?

[Gourd]

When the page was up on SPCS, the price was $219.99. Pretty good deal if you qualify for the $150 rebate... :D

yeah, i never qualify for the $150 rebate.... but you're right, thats a great price! (i'm secretly hoping this phone sucks so i'm not tempted to buy it)

Those 50 minutes probably can be used in Call Screening... Thats great compared to my 72 seconds for call screening.

haha, i could use those 50 mins to record a CD... that way i could have my favorite songs on my phone (although the quality would be piss poor)

[Touchless21]

I don't know what it is about this phone but i have to have it.

Please don't have a terrible earpiece. Please don't have a terrible earpiece. Wish. Wish. Hope. Hope.

[calrath]

I'm hoping for a good earpiece and a full duplex speaker phone. Blue LEDs for the keypad wouldn't hurt either.

[TAllenKCC]

I've been anxiously awaiting this phone. It's nice to finally know it is actually thinner than the 4900. Now if only Telesales is right about the 5/16/04 sale date posted earlier. Two of my reports say June. Hopefully this will meet my expectations.

[R2X]

Yes, starting with the 8200. You must have missed all the other threads where this was discussed. ;)

Yeah, i have not really been on su much, i missed the whole 8200 launch...

[jimmyjames]

The 3205 and 4920 are supposed to launch tomorrow (confirmed last night). The 5225 and v60v are available now.

[TRSNYPAZ]

Yeah Theres Something About This Phone That Makes It Hot Man--but No Camera That Sucks--they Couldve Added A Cam Dont You Think>???

[Touchless21]

Cameras aren't that big of a deal with me even though i have a phone that has one. But i do have to admit every once in a while (and i mean every once in a while) the cameras come in handy.

[Rose4uKY]

Well I just got the 8200 coming from a 4900. I wasn't suppose to get my upgrade till June 1st. I said I was getting a few dropped calls lately more than usual so they let me slide 2 weeks early. But the lady told me they uusually don't do this and how so many people get the phone then turn around and say oh this new phone came out I like it better I want it now. Well I was going to wait for the 4920 since my 4900 is so great recpetion and battery. But I really wanted a flip phone so I went with the 8200. I don't care about the camera but yes it's fun to have. And I wont use ready link.

But now after actually seeing real specs 5.5 battery wow. It is a cute little phone. I would love to hold one in my hand. I heard it wasn't coming out till June. I am still in my 14 days and love my 8200 but did have one problem today with a call I couldn't understand. I don't know if it was on her end or my muffled earpiece that everyone is talking about. I am sure I will keep my 8200 I love the blue and the speakerphone works well. I called Sprint from it and had it sitting on my desk in front of me and it worked really well. But the 4920 will be a big hit I bet. Rose

[The SPCS Guy]

Nice phone, if I was into bar phones again.

JE

[Rose4uKY]

It is a nice phone isn't it!!! To me especially coming from the 4900. But I did want a flip for a change and really like the 8200 and the bigger screen. But this looks like it's going to be a great phone. It's cuter then my 4900. Rose

[michelle]

4920 looks mighty tasty...must be the buzz i'm feeling right now. i need a burger...

[larry]

So michelle are you ready to ditch your 8200 yet and go for a 4920? I hope it has a better sounding earpiece than the 8200 does.

sanyo candybar phones do seem to have better sounding earpieces than the sanyo flip flop phones. :hee:

Please enlighten us with your facts.

[Mandelm]

I wish they would hurry up and make it availiable. I've got a 6 week old RL7300 that reboots about 3-5 times a day. I am going to try to get a 4920 to replace it.

[Recluse]

Please enlighten us with your facts.

there are no facts. thats my opinion. ive used just about all the sanyo flips and all of the sanyo candybars. the candybars had better sounding earpieces.

Agreed. The current Sanyo flips sound terrible, but their older candybars sounded pretty decent.

[AnthroMatt]

My RL2000 (7200) sounds like crap. Worse than the 5500 my wife has.
