More on the V600
I have to say I'm really torn here. I really like the look, feel and general use of the Motorola V600 but in addition to the syncing problems I'm having, I've just run into what might be a deal breaker. The phone I got was set up for AT&T. I have a Cingular account. The folks at Motorola were kind enough to privide an unlock code so I could test drive the thing, but all the software on the phone is AT&T branded - no big deal really untill I tried to use the internet... or send a text message... or e-mail a photo to my moblog. All these don't work because all the internal stuff wants to use AT&T. I spent about an hour going though all the directories changing all the settings to match the settings on the Sony Ericsson T616 I've been using and still no go. A few people have pointed out companies that I can send my phone and $30-$50 to and they will wipe the AT&T stuff but I'm not sure I trust that. It's a very nice phone but if I can't use half the functions I might have to switch back to the T616, crappy camera and all.
