That thing really is ugly though.

Considering that's the third revision of the device I've seen since the talk and rumors about it first started, I don't think you're right. I'm hopeful for the Verizon customers out there but I doubt they're getting anything as refined as Sprint did.

gosh lets see ... blue color and can use the phone at my house and all over my "county" and not just my "metro city" or a pritty phone that I can only use from 8 to 5 while i'm at work.

Who care about the color? I care about the phone.

Sure.... you can argue Verizon has a bit more coverage... but whats good coverage when your embarrassed to take out such a ugly phone. I think I could live with that phone but I would have to wear one of those fake nose with glasses gimmicks. So ugly.No style. Trust me.. I have had some ppl come up to me asking about the mogul. They all like it.

you're telling me that you'd be more worried to use an ugly phone than your phone coverage? . At least I won't have to worry that someone will want to steal my phone

This is definitely a personal taste issue, I think it's hideous but if works well, then so be it. Like I said before, I'm waiting to see what they release late Q4 or early 2008.

Well, if looks of the phone are your most important feature, and you want people to approach you and tell you how cool you are because of your phone, get the iPhone.

It may not compare to a pocketpc or smartphone as far as what it does, but if you hack it to add some games and nice pictures, I'm sure you'll be a hit every where you go. People will like you because of your phone, and you'll never be alone.

A girl at work has the iPhone. People were taking turns going to her desk to see it, and play w/ it. They were all very impressed by the pretty colors and shiny edges.

For some reason I doubt they are going over to her desk for the iphone, if you know what I mean. And I dont know about you all but my phone has to be pretty, if its ugly like that VZ 6800 then I take my money elsewhere. Just admit it.. that thing is hidious!
