The enV is the perfect device for VCAST Video and VCAST Music customers. With over 1.4 million songs to choose from in the Verizon Wireless VCAST Music store. A separately purchased external memory microSD card allows customers to move their own music or video clips from their computer to the phone. Plus, customers can take their music experience to the next level by pairing the device with a Bluetooth Stereo headset, to enjoy the rich, full sound of their favorite songs wirelessly.

Complementing its robust mobile entertainment features, the enV comes equipped with a slide-out QWERTY keypad for easy access to messaging applications including Wireless Sync, the proprietary email solution from Verizon Wireless. With Wireless Sync, customers can synchronize their enV with a home or office PC for easy access to new emails, calendar, contact, and task information. Additionally, the enV is equipped with a powerful 2.0-megapixel camera. Not only will it take remarkably clear images and videos (320 x 240 px), but also it boasts a convenient autofocus function and bright flash so users will be able to capture memorable moments on the go.

Already equipped with VZ Navigator-capabilities, the enV is ready for the road. VZ Navigator uses Location Based Services (LBS), including mapping, audible turn-by-turn navigation and the ability to find over 14 million points of interest (like ATMs, restaurants and gas stations) for $2.99 a day or $9.99 monthly.

Just picked up the phone on 3 days ago. I switched from an LG flip-phone to the LG9900. Although I prefer the smallness of the flip phones, this phone just has too many perks to not get it because of its larger size. Although a little longer than it's predecessor (the LG9800) this phone is thinner and lighter. A real good feel in the hand. The outside screen is very small and not that functional but the inside screen is great. Good sound quality on calls and the speaker phone sounds great. Highly recommended for tech geeks like me that don't want to spend the extra money for email/broadband access on a smart phone like the Motorola Q or Blackberry.
