i bought mine in late spring and I think they're the best phones that I've ever owned (since middle school).

only thing that annoys me is the bluetooth ear piece connection. Not sure if its the phone or the ear piece, but they will disconnect from eachother if i don't use it for a while. Other then that i haven't noticed any glitches with mine.

i bought the new motorola razr v3c from verizon a week or so after it came out in early january and im quite pleased. no glitches or service problems. ive never dropped calls and it has reception in our work elevators which is a task in itself.

the menus have some lagtime, but nothing thats intolerable. the bluetooth headset command works just fine (i use it w/ a motorola earpiece). speakerphone works well and the camera is really good. it has a great, sharp color screen.

feels really sturdy. the outside screen hasnt scratched yet at all and i have a feeling it wont for a long time unless i take a knife to it.

overall, i love it.

i've been selling cell phones for 3 and a half years and i'll tell you straight up that the razr is a piece of shit. do a search, ive listed the reasons why before. i gotta go to work right now though.

Yes, I bought the Razr when it 1st came out and besides it getting a lot of attention(this was before everyone had one) the phone itself sucked. I'm much more satisifed with my Sony P910a

unless im mistaken, verizon is the only service that carries the new razr v3c. it was released the week after this past christmas. if you go to any cellphone review site online they should outline the specific differences, cuz i sure dont remember them all. the only visual way to tell if its the new razr is if its a grey metallic color.
