Comments on: Verizon’s XV6800: Still In The Testing Phase? By Dr. Harsh K. Luthar http://luthar.com/verizons-xv6800-still-in-the-testing-phase/ An Inquiry Into Life, Work, and Commerce Sun, 22 Jan 2012 21:57:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: thesaj http://luthar.com/verizons-xv6800-still-in-the-testing-phase/comment-page-1/#comment-12 thesaj Thu, 08 Nov 2007 20:24:03 +0000 http://luthar.com/2007/07/31/verizons-xv6800-still-in-the-testing-phase/#comment-12 Bullshit.... Verizon's 6700 is buggy as all get up. And they released that almost 1/2 a year after Sprint did. Somehow, Verizon's testing equates to a release 1/2 to more than a year later than other companies. With the result of uber-buggy phones. So what's the point. The truth of the matter is that Verizon's testing and our testing is two different things. You and I want the phone company to test that the phone works, isn't buggy and does what it's supposed. And having a decent interface (ie: not require 7 clicks to close a program). Verizon's idea of testing is how to ensure that you the user can't by-pass their system. Can't use features that might compete with their offerings, etc. And yes, we're all sick of it. Bullshit….

Apparently passing FCC tests isn't enough. Verizon is very anal about their network. Apparently passing FCC tests isn’t enough.
