    Thumbs down Where's the outrage?

    I don't get it. All this complaining about bluetooth when the real travesty is the fact that this phone was hyped as:

    <vent>
    GPS Enabled: No. The GPS in the phone does not work, and will not until VZW enables it in the "future".

    "Integrated MP3 player, MP3/MIDI ringers" (from motorola's site). Except, we'll make it so hard for you you'll give up.

    Camera: hahahah.

    Mobile Web: Oh, sure. How about long startup time plus a high latency network, extremely limited caching, and a useless home page. And that's just to get started... add to that image rich webpages, impossible bookmarking, and you've got a disaster. Do any of you ACTUALLY use mobile web? WhY?

    IM: Not great... but at least it is free

    And the worst of the worst: BREW. This is the #1 reason I will drop Verizon when I redo my corp plan.

    </vent>

    So, what are YOUR complaints about the V710?

    When people say player, do you guys actually mean a real mp3 player where you can close your phone and have more than one song play after another? I've only gotten one song to play and it just stops and resumes normal phone operations. If that's it, then that's not really an mp3 "player"...
