Ok--Apple is a company(last time a checked) and therefore has server based e-mail. If the iPhone doesn't support exchange push e-mail, what good is it to business users? Or in other words, why give this to folks in your company? (I know, I know Apple prolly doesn't use any MS products in house)

Ooops, I meant to say that the i760 is da bomb, and not get O/T lol

Thanks for the info mrailing; you may have just saved Verizon from loosing a customer. My contract was up in July and I really didn’t want to switch since Verizon had the best service in my area, but the alternatives’ phone selection is a little more desirable at this point in time.

Do any of you guys think Verizon will change the rates on its data plans to compete with other carriers?

You betcha! I own it! But it's actually Twin Sons of Different Mothers.

I've experienced an epiphany: I've accepted the fact that VZW has me by the short hairs, and that I might as well shut up, sit back, and wait (no promise of a patient wait!). Regardless of what I do/don't do, nothing is going to change, and the i760 will arrive when it arrives.... or doesn't arrive.

What'll really tick me off is if I discover that I don't like it once I get my mitts on it!

That is a major fear of mine. I need a device that has good battery life, is reliable (doesn't lock up 3-4 times a day), and has good email capabilities.

I like the all the other NICE features, but all I really NEED is the above.

Several people are encouraging me to go blackberry because it does what I need, but I've been holding out because of all the nice features that wm6 can do that blackberry either doesn't do, or doesn't do nearly as well.

I have this gut feeling that the battery life isn't going to be that much better and I am still going to have lock-up issues and if that is the case I will have waited a long time, and wasted a lot of money, just for a big disappointment.

Question for you all that have i730's.
Do you have to soft-reset several times a day?
Is WM6 going to be better about this?

I have the following apps installed:
AI Roboform
AutoStep
Google Maps
OCN5
PDANet - which in my opinion SUCKS, at least on this device
PIEPlus
PhoneHelper
PhotoContacts Pro
and a couple other SD/MR solutions

Pretty much ya. I find myself checking it a few times a day to see if it locked up yet again and then I get to soft reset it so at least I can get calls again

It will be better than the PDA phone you have now.

Count me as one of those. Actually, I have been an active participant in another forum, but only recently started lurking here out of my incessant need to follow every last hint as to when I can get this phone. (Front keypad and thin form factor are the big motivators for me.)
