Just Bought the LG (VU)

Does anyone have this phone here that can give me some reviews? How do you like it if you do have it and what isn't great about it? Any reviews would be appreciated. I needed a new phone bad and I loved the capabilities that this phone had.

You're asking for reviews AFTER you bought the phone???

YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG

HAHAHA. Yeah I know, but I can cancel my order and get a different phone if it's no good. That's why I'm trying to get reviews in the next 24 hours because I have 24 hours to cancel my order. Just wanted to get a phone ordered because my phone is broken.

I'm not sure about the Vu, but I just bought the LG Dare, and absolutely love it. I have internet access on their 3G network, unlimited data, unlimited VCast videos, youtube, bluetooth, e-mail access, Unlimited GPS, awesome full HTML web browser, media player, mini-SD slot ( I have an 8GB card). Beautiful touch screen, all for only 79.99/mo. I had an itouch before this, and sold it on ebay. The Dare ROCKS. By far the best phone I've ever owned and its not even close.

Oh yeah, also forgot to mention it has a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash that takes awesome stills, and you can record 30 second video clips with it too.

Only difference is I don't have V-Cast, I have live TV. They let you watch live programs and things with AT&T TV. So I believe it has the new AT&T lineup which I will like on road trips and what not. Everything else is the same. I pay a little more. My plan I think is about 99.99 a month with everything; including minutes.

Not a huge deal, but the Dare has a 3.2 MP camera with flash, and the Vu has a 2.0 MP and no flash. Also, I have heard that the web browser is much better on the dare. But overall, I think it will be pretty similar. I love the Dare.

Heard it's a full browser that you can tilt and view from the side but you have to tap the screen to zoom in which is fine with me. People made a big deal about the fact that you can't just zoom in by spreading your fingers haha. I don't really give a fuck about that.

Yeah the camera is different. Forgot to mention that but I don't really care about the Camera. I have my own digital camera. I heard the music player on the VU is great and that it's very easy to download and upload music.

Only Con's I've seen is that the screen washes out a little when it's very bright out, and that you need to buy a SD card because it doesn't have enough space on it. I'm excited for the phone.
