There are going to be a lot of ready link phones out next year.

I think they are pushing RL as an option, which is a great business move...does not limit our customer base, but rather, it adds an option...since you are not stuck getting a PTT plan with a phone

Prob. gonna make more consumer friendly RL Plans and prices.

Deval

$10 is very consumer friendly bro

Halo1982

they should have a more consumer friendly option for family plans...5x10=$50 is a lot of money for a family...maybe if it was half that, or if the add a phones were $5...but then they wouldn't make as much. now $5 on top of vision seems pretty good.

Deval

I think as it becomes more popular, we might see that...actually, $5 would be pretty cool for add-sub

Looks to me more like the VGA1000 with the speaker added on top and the camera on front instead of back...

Just when I was sold on the samsung a 760 somebody is gotta show this phone which I like even better, camera and speakerphone and no blue trim on it. Does'nt say if the speaker phone is full duplex, but must be if the a760 is full duplex, but I don't know if I could wait till next sept for a new phone, mine is horrible, reception wise anyway. A word on the PTT thing not to change thread topics but it will NEVER take off as long as there giving PCS_PCS free, the only reason it is so successful with nextel is because the don't offer mobile to mobile, it is overkill on sprints part am not going to have free PCS_PCS and PTT unless they give it to me for free.

uhh okay.... lol. Does anyone know if we will getting any Motorola RL phones. Since now they make VoIP PTT phones (such as for VZW). ??? I also read that Nextel will be moving to VoIP PTT phones from Motorola too... any thoughts?

Sanyo designers need to look at things that way

Funny you should say that. Everyone is all over Sanyo for not updating their design...why mess with a tried and true design? Because it's BORING!!! We superficial fashion plates need something that looks good or we feel empty inside.
