wifi is the ability to use a wireless signal like at starbucks for example to use the internet browsing.

what is the difference between using the wireless on the phone as opposed to using the signal in starbucks though? and why are people shocked that i don’t know what wifi is when this is an automotive forum lol. Too often this place is treated like a tech forum. ps. I’m posting from the dare right now 🙂

The difference is you would use a broadband connection just like using a wireless laptop in your house as opposed to using the cell phone signal connecting through verizon…

the voyager and dare are not in the same league as the curve.

yes…faster
and no the data is not using your minutes. you got the premium plan, which means you have unlimited data. If you didnt have unlimited data, it still would not use your mintues, however you would get charged $1.99/per MB

I’ve actually had the dare since it came out. Few minor problems, but other then that i like it. It did shut off a few times randomly but only once or twice since ive had the thing. However currently it is fucked up due to me dropping it and as it was falling kick it about ten feet in the air. So now every now and then the touch screen stops working but if i just flick it against my hand it works. Also there is no damage to the phone visually from the flight it took which ended with it hitting cement. Planning on going to verizon to replace it just no time. Other then that its the best phone ive ever had.

it’s a great phone, i’ve had it about two weeks now with no issues at all. the only thing that concerns me is how it will react if i drop it.

I know it’s not “cool”, but I put a little wrist lanyard on mine. It’s already saved the phone from hitting the deck 2 or 3 times.

I got mine july 3rd. To date, I haven’t had a single issue with it. I love the features. The touch screen works as good as it did on day one. The camera is phenomenal. I go 3-4 days without charging the phone, constantly texting/calling. Usually i’m at about 2-3 bars of battery life at that point, so i charge it. Last soooo long.
I dropped it once, but i had it in the neoprene case. It was a 4-5 ft fall to the kitchen floor. It didn’t do anything to it. No scratches, no freezing, nothing rattles, didn’t miss a beat.
But yes, this is the best phone i’ve ever had.

If it lands face down your heart will most likely skip a beat and you will not want to pick it up for fear of seeing your screen gone. Happened twice to me so far. One of the drops was from about ten feet onto cement. Broke something on the inside but no cosmetic damage at all thank god. Now i can just take it back and say something is wrong with it and they will replace it.
