More on the LG VX-8500

Part MP3 Player, Part Phone. Tottaly Sweet.

LG and Verizon Wireless made some long-overdue changes with the media performer on the Chocolate; there's nowadays a separate music player that play your tunes in the background, and you can hear to every bit of your music with a Bluetooth stereo headset (yes, even protected music).

Nonetheless, Verizon still skimps when it comes to earbuds and USB cables -- you'll have to shop for them separately. And while the Chocolate's touch-sensitive tablet looks like the iPod's famed scrollwheel, it's just a average four-way navigational mouse, and it won't halt or skip your songs when the player is running in the background. actually, besides the one-step Music button and the volume controls, the LG VX-8500 doesn't possess any dedicated music controls at all.

SMS and MMS messaging options for the LG VX-8500 are standard for the course; the phone's keypad is somewhat roomy and we didn't run into any consummation distress while typing. That said, we desire the message interface took greater advantage of the display; we could just fit about 115 characters on the screen, well short of the 200 we desire. IM and e-mail fanatics will have to settle for using the mobile Web.

You earn the usual slate of V Cast online offerings on the LG VX-8500, plus plenty of streaming video and downloadable tunes from Verizon's V Cast Music service (now even sweeter that VZW will let you buy music without paying the $15/month access charge). EV-DO receiving in Manhattan was excellent, and the phone's WAP browser easily loaded up Google's home page, although it crashed when trying to pull down the lengthy New York Times site.

You'll be delighted to check that Verizon and LG have finally made good on their long-promised Flash-infused interface. Gone is VZW's staid UI; in its place, you'll discover sophistical, dynamic menus that rotate around and slide open at a touch of the keypad. Very cool!!!
