I can't think of a single adult who owns one of those things. Talk about a kiddy toy. Real adults who work for a living use Treos and Blackberry's but I guess if yu want to Imn you buddies at the mall the Sidekick will work.<br><br>Agreed on the form factor though.

There are some details that are much nicer.  I really like the designated key for the wireless email, no more waiting for the mobile web to start in order to log on to open your email.  The navigation feature is an added bonus also!  There is the GPS, and the talking directions to the Navigation that makes this a worth while feature.  Not cheap looking by any means.  Another upgrade are the keys on the keyboard.  They are spread apart a little more, so it makes it easier to type.  The 2.0 megapixel camera with a protective lens cover is a major upgrade!  There are more camera like features with this newer camera compared to the 9800.  I like it and I'm so glad that it is finally here. If you like the 9800, you can definately appreciate the upgrades and better design associated with this phone. Nothing good was taked out of this phone, but only newer more sofisticated options are added.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[April]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 25th 2006 5:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon's LG enV (VX9900) on-line, out for retail?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</guid><description><![CDATA[The 9800 is by far the best phone I ever had (I've owned a couple motorolas and a samsung before). Great voice quality, stil not as big or "brick"-like as a sidekick, stereo speakers, and nice qwerty keypad without having to get a smartphone/pda. Having played with the 9900 extensively my goodness is it a better phone! The 9900 takes AMAZING pictures (for a phone at least), has a much better looking UI, slimmer, lighter, better battery life... I mean it is a great solid phone. Methinks the people knocking this phone are only knocking it because it's on Verizon. If T-Mobile or Cingular came out with the same thing they'd be drooling over it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[elgee02]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 26th 2006 1:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon's LG enV (VX9900) on-line, out for retail?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</guid><description><![CDATA[Here's my take on the snazy 9900; it's just like the 9800.. You would be fooled to think that there were HUGE differences in these two models, really all it is is genuinely an Upgrade to the 9800; everything you thought would be better of the 9800 transcends itself on the 9900. I ravished and fantasized about upgrading to this model. I however got the chance to play with it before we launched it and realized that all my high hopes for this gadget were all let down. Yes, the phone is thinner, but I suppose to thinness compensates for its width. This thing feels like a brick in your hands, and I have big hands for a girl. Totally not what I expected. The menu style gives it more of a sidekick feel, but not much different. It is WMA/MP3 capable, but if you work for VZW you know how to make your non-MP3 VCast Music LG-VX9800 become a MP3/WMA capable phone! ;) <br>I hate the hinge on this thing, it completely makes the screen look almost hidden, you can not have the phone flipped open and it be steady with the counter top. That's a problem, and the memory card calls for a Micro SD as opposed to The V's Mini SD; big bummer to those of us who have spent a few bucks on a 1G memory card!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Diane]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 26th 2006 3:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon's LG enV (VX9900) on-line, out for retail?]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/11/23/verizons-lg-env-vx9800-on-line-out-for-retail/</guid><description><![CDATA[I clicked the picture at the top, it took my to the Testman Site with the phone on it.
