Wow they are being tightlipped on this one.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the fourth of July Q3? __________________

Hey, i like this quote from that article
"The much-anticipated Apple iPhone, which will be sold exclusively for AT&T's network, will not be impacted by this ban, since the phone does not use WCDMA. It uses AT&T's slower 2.5G network technology." |

The exclusion order does not apply to handheld wireless communications devices that are of the same models as handheld wireless communications devices that were being imported for sale to the general public on or before the date of the order, June 7, 2007.
|
It states "devices that WERE BEING IMPORTED for sale". It does NOT state devices that were already for sale.
This means devices that were being imported prior to 6/7/07 are clear. There is nothing stating they must already be on sale before that date. |

Ability to Tether via Bluetooth (per the Samsung Rep)...).

dangerous (and equus),
did you really mean Voice Command? or Voice Signal?
I have read lots of comments comparing the two. I have really liked Voice Signal...is Verizon switching? |

it has VOICE COMMAND. Voice Command is a M$ program and that is what is coming with the WM6 I760.
VC is better than VS by Far. IMHO

I can't answer the "IS Verizon Switching" Statement, as i think it depends on the phone that you are buying. Windows Mobile i would imagine will run the VC, whereas the Non WM phones will run VS. (Does that make sense)? |

By the time Rev A reaches Pismo Beach on the Central Coast of CA, I'll need a new phone, so the I760 sounds very good. We don't have EVDO yet.

Just so everyone knows, with WM6, Microsoft made it easier for companies to add voice recognition software, namely, Microsoft Voice Command. It is now available as an add-on module for the OS, and isn't another piece of software. Basically it's now one of the options they can turn on for a small fee, most likely less than VoiceSignal was charging per unit. It is suppose to integrate better with the handheld, especially with WM6, since it's no longer a separate install.
Expect the new Voice Command to be better.... __________________
