I just upgraded form a LG CU500 to the LG CU500v and I am already very pleased with it besause
1. It has video sharing
2. It has a great display
3. Music player has good quality for a phone
4. The rotating camera is the coolist thing for a camera phone
5. The picture/video quality is the best I have seen in any camera phone I have ever owned
The Bad
1. The ascending ringtone gets WAY TOO LOUD
2. You need to take out the battery to insert the memory card
The in the long run the awsome features cancel out the bad features.

Ok, this is the number 1 Official review for this phone.
Great Signal! You will hear eveything you want to hear just as if you were on a house phone.
Great features! All the features except the "video calling" work flawlessly as promised.
"Video Calling" since this is a service not yet started by AT&T we users cannot use it yet, thus we have to wait for this friggin awesome feature to be added to the bill!
If you like a sexy flip phone with no true flaws. this one is it! Plus you can get it free from AT&T or earn $60 if u buy it from here!. they are crazy! dont think. just buy this phone. why are you still reading this. go. NOW!
