Complaints about Razor are:

1. Low RAM <12MB vs. 40MB on triplets

I thought it was 5MB ..but 12MB is plenty for me

Usable RAM is about that much depending on if you delete the crap stock ringtones, wallpaper, and ringers.


2. Camera is as good as triplet's

what is triplet's?

Triplets are the Vnnn model Motorola phones.

I paid $0 in the end by buying via Amazon with 2yr contract with one caveat in that you CAN NOT port an existing number if you buy Cingular (and only them) via Amazon a fact which is buried elsewhere under the LNP FAQ. Once you get the rebate which takes about 4 months you can port so you'd need a place to park your old number in the mean time.

Amazon has even a better deal now. $150 rebate with a free headset. But you are right, it looks to me like they won't let me transfer my existing Cingular number.... it has to be a new line of service. http://ec3.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/00/10/00/19/43/39/100019433977._V51375220_.pdf

Same deal I got AFAIK, it's the Fellowes "Ear Glove" of which I have 3. 1st 2 had defective mics, the replacement direct from Fellows had good mic, crappy range and the smart button broke off 1st month I had it. YYMV, but I doubt it.




But they don't really address it directly. To wait four months for the rebate and keep my existing line cost me $148..... so I am not really ahead unless I dump my old number. I wonder how they verify activation... by the phone serial... or the phone number? It is confusing, I wish I could call and ask somebody

They track by phone number which is why you can't even go to Cingular & have it ported after the phone gets to you.


thanks for the tips and advice!


Your welcome, I had a nightmare switching for a phone that while cool, new and free, was not worth the 4 months of problems that switching co's cost me.
