Looks really hot, but too bad it will have the same crappy software that does annoying things like limit MP3 ringtones.

are you serious? cry about it more. mp3 ringers? thats old and lame. its a phone to make/receive calls. crappy software has really killed verizon. man those numbers dont lie huh?

Go read about the Chocolate Jer and you'll find most reviewers have issue with the software.There are two complete music players on it that essentially do the same thing but with a different UI.

If you like the walled garden, stay inside the walls and don't hate on those of us who like a little choice.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Verizon either but I still use them after 7 years because all the others are totally worthless. You have to put up with their crap because they know nobody else comes close to their network.

The Chocolate does have some software problems, but if you're on Verizon it's not a bad choice. It's beautiful hardware.

Although the Chocolate has its flaws, LG are certainly on the right track, so the line will only improve for future versions of the phone. There's no doubt that the LG Chocolate slider is slicker than this one though.

Do you know if the phone has speaker phone?

i think that the slider chocolate is better then the flip, it is more sleek and the design is way better then the VX8600

Yeah I'm with the previous reviewer - If the new one will have a speakerphone i'll wait, but if not, i'll get the slider. Anyone know? Please any help would be amazing. Time is of the essence...

I don't like the flip, it reminds me too much of the Motorola RAZR. I don't like how the numbers are touch and not press. The slider chocolate is definitely the better of the two!!!

The LG slider does have a speaker phone, it just needs version 4 software. Verizon hasn't released that version yet, and I don't know how to get it..My son bought the LG through verizon online and it came with a speaker phone. One of the buttons stopped working on the keypad and they gave him a new phone with no speaker phone. They, at the retail store told him his old phone had version 4 and verizon didn't release that software. Does anyone know how to get version 4?

yeah i would like to know how to get the version 4 software as well

Version 4 is now available at VW stores in Albany NY, check your local store. It does give the chocolate a speaker phone. Just had it upgraded today.

the LGs gr8 IMO. Im having one problem though. I've got a bunch of pictures stored under "my stuff" in PHOTOS and OTHER and i really want to use them as wallpaper but i cant figure out how. Can anyone help??

the version 4 software is now availible at all verizon wireless stores that have a tech departent. The version 4 software for the chocolate is much, and when i say much, i mean much better. No freezing menus and music loading. load tyimes and certain windows look different and better. Plus, yeah u got it, Speakerphone. And it is not loud raspy speakerphone either. It is paportionally ranged speakerphone that is clear and understandable. It also allows you to properly format your card because u werent able to do this with software version 1,2 and 3. Overall, Much Better and after the new software upgrade, i could care less when the vx-9900 comes out-(new "V")

Chocolate is passe. I'm waiting for the LG Shine. Nothing but the best.
