Guys:
We use Verizon and currenly have non-Bluetooth LG phones that work OK but the reception in our own house is poor. We're pretty close to our "New in Two" date and I'm looking at the Bluetooth phones from Verizon for use in my wife's soon-to-come e90. But I've heard that Verizon "cripples" the Bluetooth function in some/all of its phones. What does that mean?
Also, it appears that Verizon's choices for Bluetooth are the Moto V710 and the Moto E815, as well as a newer LG phone.
Any thoughts from the group on these choices? i'd like to have reception in my house (would the Moto, or the newer LG improve on the current LG VX4400) and am inclined to stick with Verizon because of service in the DC Metro. I had AT&T (now Cingular) and canned it two years ago for Verizon because of spotty coverage.
Please weigh in.
Thanks
Mike
