I've read so much about the Mogul but I really love and still love my XV6700 with Phoenix06's ROM. That is the one thing I'll miss about upgrading to the Mogul. I've also been trolling this forum and was disappointed that there are no kitchen ROMs that exists for the Mogul........yet. But I know I made the right/best choice by switching. The kicker was the unlimited data which is a savings of 44.99/month that I had with Verizon for unlimited data.

Also, I'm debating on whether or not to add the protection plan for an additional $7/month. I had a protection plan for my XV6700 and never once had to get it serviced for any reason despite dropping it a couple times here and there... It's still working just as beautifully since the day I got it.

I hear you on the service plan... I'm still within 30 days of my purchase so I can still get insurance... but just like car extended warranties, you gotta do the math. So let's take a look at it:

The insurance is $7 a month. So let's say you don't have a problem until a year later, that means you've spent $84 already on insurance. Plus, they charge you a $55 deductible, making your total out-of-pocket expense to replace the phone $139. A year from now, the price on this phone is going to drop considerably (afterall, Sprint is not VzW which still charges $299 for a 6700 2 years later, lol). And if nothing happens to your phone within 2 years (life of your contract) you've paid $168 out-of-pocket.

So my advice is the same as what they say about car extended warranties... take the money you would have spent on the insurance and put it in a savings account. If something happens, the money is there to offset the cost of replacing the phone. If nothing happens, the money is there to go towards a new model... or anything else you want to buy.

But... if you are the type of person that is accident prone and is constantly dropping their phone, glasses, iPods, etc... then get the insurance!

im a huge fan of the insurance, i am one of those people that drop, loose or go swimming with stuff in my pockets. i usually average about 2-3 phones a year, so it pays for its self....especially now since im gonna be keeping all the storage cards.

Player: Audio codec (Windows Media Audio) not supported by the player!

then

Player: Video codec (Windows Media Video 9) not supported by the player!

I've tried every stream format I could think of and no matter what I can't get video to play in TCPMP, just audio.

Here's the fix:

Take the file I uploaded here, unzip it on your PC, then then drop the two .dll files into your \Windows folder on your Mogul. TCPMP will now be able to play the Windows Media Stream that ORB puts out.

That did it! Thank you so much!

You're welcome

The codecs are Windows Media 9 taken from Windows Mobile 5. They will work in WM6.

The problem with ORB is that it is coded to work with WM9 streams and hasn't been updated yet.
