I'm almost up on my current VZW contract. I'll be eligible for a New
Every Two phone.

I have a nice Motorola V60s phone. Its a good phone and will keep it
for a backup, but I'm in the market for a new phone.

Can anyone recommend a GOOD phone with the following:

1. Tri-mode (yes, I still want analog backup)
2. No camera! Can't have a camera phone where I work. (you know those
Government folks)
3. No Bluetooth. This one is optional, but I really don't want the
added expense.
4. Motorola preferred. Doesn't have to be, but my last 3 phones are
Motorolas and they've been very good phones. I also have plug-in
accessories for them, though if I absolutely had to, I'd get new ones.

IIRC, Motorola sells the V260 phone at Radio Shack has pretty much
what I'm looking for, but I don't recall it being sold at VZW stores.

Anyone else have ideas?

Thanks. Dave

I had the same needs.  No camera (because of my work), tri-mode, and did not
care about BT.  I got an LG VX4650 (non PTT version of VX4700) on New Every
Two.  All of the features I cared about in a non-camera phone.  The
speakerphone is just amazing. Very loud and clear - best I've heard in a
mobile phone.   The leather case in the Verizon accessory kit did not fit
well so that's going back but otherwise I'm extremely pleased.

I also have the LG VX 4650 and am very pleased with it.  The leather
case had a very tight fit.  Works just fine - after it was on!
