If you've got Verizon, I'd turn that badboy back in and get yourself the E815. It's like a v710 on steroids.

Alltel

We dont have verizon here.
Only choices we have are US Cellular, Nextell, Sprint, Cingular, Alltel.
Alltel has the best reception at my house, no one else even gets a signal.

My next choice up was the Nokia 6255, But the store couldnt get it til the end of the month, and I need it by this weekend.

Everyone that I know that has the 710 swears by them.
That's what the manager and 2 other employies carry so that's enough for me. They claim to have been in areas known to drop calls (shhh hospital) and have never dropped a call with them there!

Well then since it's your only option, the v710 will serve you quite well. I was just saying that since VZW has both, although the v710 is being phased out as we speak. The E815 is awesome, although it is an all-digital phone. That said, I've been in "fringe" areas on some of my older phones and the E815 in the same spots has half to full bars showing.

I am now in the process of trying to decide what Hands-Free kit to go with myself. I like the IHF-1000 by Moto, and I want to fully integrate it into the truck. I just can't figure out how the Ford Hands-Free Prep Kit will work. I wish they had a damned pic of it on their accessory website (or on any other website, for that matter). Anyone have a pic of the Ford Cell Phone Hands-Free Prep Kit? Also, do I need the one specified as "for Molex Type Connector?" What's the difference between that one and the one that's "for Tyco Type Connector?"

Isn't there a company called Pelican or something like that, that makes a universal blue tooth car kit? I remember looking into this when I got the Mustang. I still want one. I hate talking on the phone in the car, and the 5-spd makes it almost impossible...

I remember they had 2 or 3 different setups. One had an answer button, and end call button, then others had caller ID screens and such... Figured I could move my garage door opener, and wire one into the convertible top switch I'm using...

I did a quick search, but couldn't find anything. I couldn't even find the thread where we talked about them here...

Edit: Parrot! I don't see the two button one I was looking at before, but they now have a two button with volume control...
