@ LenaB: I love everything about this phone except that the navigation wheel seems a little too sensitive. I’m sure I’ll get used to that, so I highly recommend it.

I, too, have Verizon and I’ve found their customer service to be quite fantastic. My contract is up in July and I’m debating renewing it… your phone is way pretty, though.

@ mario: I was talking with Verizon customer support last night and the lady placed a call to my cellphone to make sure that it was working. She commented on my mp3 ringtone and seemed rather surprised when I told her I had made it myself.

I have to say that the two times I’ve talk with Verizon’s customer service so far have been the best experiences I’ve ever had with phone support from any company.

I have a Samsung U740 through Verizon. I’ve managed to import some ringtones from myxer, but some file formats just don’t work. I tried getting Verizon to comment, but all they want to do is sell me THEIR ringtones. Ugh.

@ Robby: I read that using BitPim could void the warranty on your phone, so I was too scared to try it. I have the text message plan, so that wasn’t really an issue.

It was so easy on my Samsung SGH-D807 (AT&T Wireless) to set any audio file as a ringtone. I was very surprised to see that Verizon didn’t offer the same capability.

I have a VX8600 (the flip version of the chocolate). With almost all LG phones, you can purchase a USB cable (or connect via BlueTooth) and send songs to your phone using a great program called BitPim. Then you don’t have to pay e-mail / text attachment fees (if that’s not part of your plan).
