But what I really want to know is, what is the touch screen like? Is it somewhere in between? Here is my diagram:

I would like one...pink (yeah!PINK!GOT A PROBLEM?) or purple...I'm tired of black and silver.

Saying that Verizon never drops a call.

however LG with Verizon makes for horrible interface. LG touch technology is sticky. I used the Voyager, gave up, just a toy but this looks better.

Not sure I'd spend 200 though on something so cheap looking and I suspect underpowered.]]>Jun 25th 2008 12:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/
I DO NOT HAVE AN IPHONE.

I have an IPOD. Go to Wal Mart. Buy one. No AT&T. Really.

Is Verizon's internet free? WiFi is. I have Verizon's so called internet service on my VX9900. It sucks, costs money, and airtime.]]>Jun 25th 2008 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/
As for the the Dare phone, it is basically an upgraded chocolate phone, from what I hear Verizon again crippled the OS.]]>Jun 25th 2008 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/
So I don't understand how your talk of "early cancellation fees" apply. Last I checked, you don't need a contract to use an iPod. Normally, I would cut you slack and assume it was a typo, but it seems to me that you just wanted to spew misguided rhetoric the first chance you got, so you conveniently didn't read what John's post actually says.]]>Jun 25th 2008 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/
CDMA is the antichrist as far as i'm concerned, though. But i'm a GSM zealot, so i guess that negates my previous statement]]>Jun 25th 2008 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/

I love both of the phones, but can't be strapped with the crappy non-business friendly OS.

I've used windows mobile since the Motorola MPX 200 smartphone.

The connectivity and ease of use in relation to my offices exchange is critical.

I currently used the ATT Tilt (Kaiser). Using GoogleMaps or LiveSearch with the GPS built in and adding the TouchFlo interface to it is awesome.

I'll only consider switching away from WinMo when i see an OS provide me with all the flexibility.]]>Jun 25th 2008 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 11:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 11:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Evdo data: Fuckin' not!

Look, I think the iphone is a nice piece of kit, and I know cdma is a technological dead end, but RIGHT NOW Verizon offers the best voice network (by far, and I've used them all, and I travel around the country monthly) and the best data network (rev a, + verzions coverage advantage over sprint) and if this is the best writable touch phone they're going to make available (no x1, no touch pro) than so be it, let's see some reviews.]]>Jun 25th 2008 1:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 1:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 26th 2008 4:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/Jun 25th 2008 1:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/verizons-lg-dare-touchscreen-contender-available-today-for-200/
