Yeah, weird Motorola have used the V3 style keypad as opposed to the V3i.
I wonder if I can put a V3i keypad on it instead?

My guess would be no because the buttoms arenthe same (i.e. middle menu button gone)

OMG a Gold V3xx with that great screen and 3G. If this will truly go for $279 no commit price, I might have to pick it up.

Based on that price and the fact that the v3i (without itunes and non D&G branded, just gold) sold/sells for more, i wonder if it is gold in color or actual gold.

someone said the rebate form for 21-31 doesn't list it... so does that mean when this phone first coems out it's not going to have a rebate?

[anubis9278]

its on the rebate form...$50 MIR

I can't wait for this phone! I have to say that i really wish the keypad on this phone was like that of the v3i instead of more similar to the razr in the sens that there are those verticle lines on both sides of the keys cause it makes the keys smaller. Also, i'm going to have to find a way to remap that CV button to Cingular Music assuming it has it on there.

What does the keypad look like on the V3I. I keep hearing they are different from the V3 but on Cingular and Motos website they look identical. Is the V3I resemble the Krzr? Someone please post a pic of the difference.

if you look on Moto's webiste you will see the difference...
basically, if take say the row of number 1 2 3: ____ ____
On the V3 it looks like this..........................| 1 | 2 |3 |

On the V3i it looks like this 1\2/3

I looked on the motorola site, double checked and the V3 and the V3i has the same kepypad layout?

[Cltx11]

I heard there is a difference on the Razr's but I never have seen the |1|2|3| numbers excpet for on the Krzrs???

the v3 and v3i are definitely very different. try going to phonescoop.com and looking at pictures of the two keypads... the main differencei s that all the numbers on teh v3 has vertical lines on the outside lef t and right of the pohne, by the edges, the v3i does not, the straight lines go out all the way to the edges... if you look side by side it is really difficult to miss

Only difference I see is the soft keys?

V3xx is really obvious. Am I missing something here?

the v3 pic you're looking at isn't the v3, it's the v3m which IS like the v3i without the middle menu button.

engadget mobile is calling this phone "low to mid-range." Granted, it should probably have a 2.0 megapixel camera... and yes, phones such as the MAXX are more advanced, what exactly is it lacking to make it a high end 3G phone?
