[Pre-Disastered]

Today, a Qwest Migration Team Agent reaffirmed that Mogul users will be offered either a BlackBerry or an LG enV2 if we migrate to Verizon.
After reading the post from smb on 07/20/2008, stating the same, I have been preparing to have to purchase new phones for the switch. I think that stinks because Qwest should be offing much better replacements.

Qwest has always said the phones will be "comparable". I have a Mogul and I do not find either phone comparable. My son has a Katana II, the agent I spoke to today stated that he will have the choice of an LG 5400 or Samsung U410. For anyone who has a Samsung A920, the choices are an LG 8350 or a Samsung U550. Hopefully these are subject to change.

I am personally looking forward to the switch to Verizon because of the MMS capabilities they have on their version of the Mogul (XV6800) and for the Samsung I760. However, I don't agree with Qwests definition of "comparable", and I remain quite disappointed over their replacement phones.

Qwest, in an attempt to soften the blow, was quick to remind me that we will be getting a 25% discount if we do not chose one of the offered replacement phones. They also stated that Mailers were going out today in certain areas to start the Migration. They did not confirm what regions were getting the notices first. And that a team of agents will be calling Stand Alone cell phone customers first asking if you want to switch.
