Actual Slash pics

As I posted in another thread, I have a source (my daughter at Radio Shack) that told me they had 1 Slash that came in. I went and bought it. A few pics...

Ahhh you lucky bugger , I soooo cant wait to get that phone.

What price was it and what is the sound and or vibration like ?

The main reason im thinking of moving on from my wildcard is for the mp3 ringtone volume , ive missed loads of calls because of it and this looks like it might be a nice replacement.

Would you please check to see if the Bluetooth supports more than just HSP and HFP. Not supporting Object Push has been my biggest gripe with the VM phones.

You should be able to find it under the settings or bluetooth menu, look for something called Profiles, and it should list out what is supported.

HSP, HFP, PBAP

Listed in supported profiles.

To answer the other question the Slash was $80.

Trying to up load a short video of the Slash starting up.

Damn greedy bastards. PBAP is absolutely useless.
Maybe if I double pinky swear to continue buying their crappy ringtones and graphics, they'll sell me a phone that isn't bluetooth cripled.

I returned my super slice to VM for credit for the slash, but when I try to log in it says my login info is incorrect; like they deleted my account. Did they just suspend it?

When I get it I'll either sell it or use it as a test phone for cracking.

I wonder if this phone is as bulky as the Wild Card is to carry around? The Slash looks really wide..
