PRL 50113 has been released and here are the changes compared to PRL
50110.  Some of the details of the SIDs were obtained from
www.justalurker.com and www.mountainwireless.com   I'll start with the
"bad" news and work towards the "good" news.  Some changes in priority

Does anyone know if VZW is planning on introducing any new Kyocera
phones soon?  I love the Kyocera feature set, but my 3035 is just too
damn unstable.  I'd go for the 2325, but I'd really miss the speaker
phone capability.  And I definitely want to stay with the candy bar

For those who haven't seen it yet, the 530 is now offered in silver.  Good
alternative for those who like the phone but don't like the gold.  Silver
one also doesn't include the extra battery.

I really want to grab myself the new Samsung i600 (I currently have the LG
vx6000). I've been waiting for it ever since I stumbled on to the Sprint's
i500 a number of months ago.
My two year contract isn't up until July or so, so I'm not within $100

I'm looking at going through a company that resells Verizon Wireless
airtime. There's no local numbers available where I live (even if I went
direct through Verizon). So, I understand I can choose some rediculusly far
away area code such as MN, CO, UT, WA, OR, or other western ...

I need information on Conference Calling (CC).
I have successfully done the 2 scenarios;
1. Me initialing 2 calls and getting them on conference.
2. Getting a call and then calling someone else and making it conference.

After recent trips to the UP in the Gwinn/Marquette area and having my
phone show Extended Network (because it picked up Alltel's Digital SID
244) but yet being billing roaming charges, because that part of
Michigan, the western end of the UP, was not part of the AC Network, I

I am thinking of switching carriers.  Can you tell me how the GSM coverage
is in Gainesville & North Florida in general?  Are you satisfied with the
company in general?
Thanks in advance... Bruce

Has anyone had any experience with the new Nokia offerings at Verizon?  I
know history is not too good with Nokias and Verizon in general but the new
offerings are too good to pass up.
I have an old LG-TM510 that's about dead from overuse.  The 4400 has got me

It seems to me that in the last couple of weeks quality information around
here has come to a crawl.  I have also noticed that PhoneScoop has updated
their entire site and now has private forums.  There entire site now is
updated very infrequently, and there is little or no traffic ...

In the news today in NYC a guy dropped his cell phone in the toilet on
a Metro North commuter train. His arm got stuck in the toilet trying
to retrieve it. The train had to be evacuated and many trains
rerouted. It took fire fighters an hour to free his arm.

Starting yesterday, every time I turn on my phone and it makes contact with
a tower I get an indication that I have a new voicemail message. When I call
to check it I'm told that I have no new messages. This erases the new VM
indicator. But next time I power my phone down and then ...

Does anyone have a summary of the changes in software version 08 for the
VX4400?  I've seen the list for software through V06, but would like to see
what has been changed in 07 and 08.
I've heard rumors of better signal strength (though I'm not sure that is

Can anyone recommend something for under $200 that has long battery
life and is easy to operate ? I'm thinking about the Motorola T730 and
Nokia 3589i. Thanks.
I don't really need camera functionality.

Back in June, RCC announced new roaming agreements with AT&T and Cingular,
and VZW mysteriously added Northern MN to it's coverage and RCC announced
overlaying their MN network with CDMA.
