Question: I recently spoke with UT Star.com regarding software for my PPC 6700. They told me that they recently came out with an AKU 3.0 for the phone but it owuld be up to Sprint to do something with it. My question is if you guys are planning on releasing the AKU 3.0?
================================================== ===========

Forgot to mention, that when I spoke to UT Star they told me that the new AKU even though is running WM5 will act in the same way as WM6. That it will have HTML email and many other enhancements.

Thanks for the heads-up, Keep us updated

I dig the HTML E-Mail

I also want to say "Thanks"......but just one thing

Why on EARTH....would you post your Name/Phone/Account info..on the www........you might want to edit that part out.....I deal with security....and that is not very smart...if you know where I am coming from.

Umm... Why would Sprint release a new AKU for a device given EOL? That seems rather pointless if they're not going to make any new cash off of it.

I'll believe it when I see it.

VERY GOOD POINT, Dont beg for identity theft, But were all honest here, right?

Thanx for the notice. I just spaced it.. It's been corrected...

Good point. But like I said Take it for what is worth. I'll believe it when I see it too..

Well it might be one of those "Keep the Customer Happy" things

We all hope for that!! I've dealt with UT Star and they seem to be very helpful with their customers. I just recently talked to them about the stylus on my 6700 they sent me a new one that is an upgrade from the original. It actually stays in my phone. Then they sent me a battery cover that also stays put on my phone, no questions asked. they didn't even want to hear about my serial number..

THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE
