I happened to be outside of Raleigh NC, stopped at a store, they told me, "goto this repair center" went there,wasn't a repair center. The manager went out of his way and called a couple of corporate repair centers and found one with a 6700 to swap.. Went there (in Durham), they swapped it..

and, guess what!!! Same Friggin Problem!!!

Will NOT connect at EV, only 1X.. sometimes with factory flash, it will show EV on the data connection, but only at idle, and soon as you hit a link in IE or other data, it then shows only 1X.. I only get a 1X connection.

Because this is now on two phones, same problem, I think it must be a network issue.

BTW,, nobody even offered, or tried to do an upgrade.. I have TEP, but they always just say "we will order you one", or "go through the insurance".

this was at stores in Virginia Beach, Raleigh NC, Wake Forest, NC, and Durham NC

they are not letting the 6800's out!!!

let me know what you think! I am calling tech support today when I get to an EV area and talk with them..

I will keep pushing until they get me to connect at EV, even if they keep replacing the phone with the same model.. I will stay after them!
