New details on LG VX8800 for Verizon

advertisment:
We recently informed you about the upcoming LG VX8800 and LG VX10000 that Verizon is planning on releasing sometime over the next few months. Today we were provided with several more pictures and specifications about the VX8800 by an anonymous source.

The Camera has been updated from a 1.3MP to a 2MP, yet there is no Flash or AutoFocus.The Dynamic Color TFT Touchpad, which replaces the scroll wheel on the VX8550 Chocolate, has text icons that change depending on which application you are using. You can "slide" you finger across the display's arrows to scroll thorough the menus. There are two themes included, the standard "Verizon" and a new one as shown in the pictures. The back of the phone has a leather-like feel and imprint to it. The included battery is 800 mAh.

Despite the information and pictures provided, no one seems to know when the VX8800 will be released, what the target price will
be, or if it will still carry the name "Chocolate".

Verizon = bad
It doesn't matter what phone Verizon sells, they won't let you connect directly to your computer. Verizon disables any direct connection so you'll pay their fees to connect to their online service.

what
direct connec to get music? why wouldnt you just use a memory card reader to dump all the mp3s and wma's that you want onto the card? the phone will read them just fine. let the phone format the card and start putting music into your MY MUSIC folder.

your fault
so your blaming verion for you poor choice in buying a phone? or could it be your phone came out before alot of phones had memory cards? i deal with ignorant people like you everday, you go blaming Verizon for your phone not having all the features you wanted, because you were to cheap to buy what you wanted. what phone do you have anyways? theres not a VCast music phone without a memory card slot.

Simple.
Look, it's easy. You don't have anyone to blame for this, but yourself. You chose:
1: Your phone.
2: Your network
Your choices, your consequences.
You have a poor choice in phones, if it doesn't have a memory card slot. You have a poor choice in networks, because Verizon is not exactly the least restricting network out there. Makes me glad that they have good networks in Scotland.
Note to self: Don't waste words explaining things to retards.

thats funny
I just have one question to the guy getting all pissy over verizon and the connecting to the computer......HOW OLD IS YOUR PHONE DUDE?! lol I mean what do you have a motorola E815 or what. If you do thats your own damn fault I'd think by now you could have gotten a new phone sence they allow one year upgrades now....thats just sad and sorry. The new chocolate or what ever we call it will be nice and just like any phone some people will love it and others will hate on it...thats normal. I myself HATE the iphone.

pretty sure that the PRE-ORDER date for venus will be the 4th or 5th of November, and release date 19th... but others have said 21-24 (which I don't think will be the case because of the holiday).
