[Cialug] OT: Looking for a good verizon phone for my non-geek loved one

Nice luck with the e815.  If you're into being the geek that works on the
phone I think you *may* be able to use seem edits to "re"activate other
bluetooth profiles.  My wife hasn't let me hack her phone to try.... :(  Sux
when I have to pay for her ringtones...but at least she sends them via media
message from the web instead of buying them from verizon!
