Re: Qwest will never release a ROM upgrade for Mogul PPC6800

. We don't have to give up our current phone plans.

So, we get new phones with verizon compatible software, and they have to be equivalent.
I'm kinda glad, seeing as how I own a Mogul, the top of the line, and I'm not downgrading. I want Verizon's XV6800 and I'm not settling for anything less.

Of course, this could all change, but this information I got straight from two different people who work for Qwest, so so far, it sounds like a phone swap, nothing more.

I could be wrong, but doesn't sound so bad.
Hate to tell you but the qwest phone will work on vzw they are cdma like vzw, vzw is opening up their network to anyphone. Also Sprint/Qwest have some of the same phone, Mogul/xv6800 touch, etc.
I also think VZW will buy sprint in a bidding war with t-mobile. I could see vzw paying 123 trillion dollars for sprint.
