i've never had Verizon service; even though, i'm an employee.
Verizon has the best coverage; however, u pay for it.
i have Nextel. i'm quite satisifed w/ it. i've never needed
service and not had it. the coverage may not be equal to
Verizon, but it's never let me down.

My wife has a E815 from Verizon it works perfect in the BMW and has great service coverage.

The draw back to the E815 is that it use only the Vezion system and covergage in upstate NY is limited. The older phone 715? might be a better for remote areas.

I still am waiting for the new Treo 700, which I hope will pair with the BMW.
Does anyone know if the Treo will pair with the BMW?


the 650 does, i dont see why the 700 wouldnt although its using wm5 so who knows

regarding the 6700, there is a screen lock, and with the new firmware update, bmw car kits are fully supported, just as the 650 is

Sprint licks my balls! I hate them and plan to change soon. I had them turn my phone off last week for what the automated system said was $3.01, that's right three dollars and a penny. I paid $10.00 to get it turned on and nothing happened. I logged in to their website that night and in one place it said I owed $141.00 in another it said $220.00!!!!!!!! I couldn't make sense of why they were different, but I paid the $141.00 and they turned it back on. I have lots of options and minutes on my phone and you'd think they would kiss my ass a little more. I really dispise them and if I can defer any potential customers away from them I would be pleased about it.

So, I assume that means you owed them $141.00?

Check with them to see if you have a spending limit on your account. If you do and you go over that pre-set limit, they will shut you down.

As far as I know I do not have a spending limit and but I do have a usage lmit. In the past if I've been close to the limit they have sent me a text message letting me know I at 80% usage for the month. My point is in the past 3 years I've been with them, I have been very unhappy with their customer service and my experiences with them.
