Re: Buying a Triumph? Possible coupon Target has $50 gift card with full price $299 purchase. Couple of e-tailers have it for ~$250, potentially without sales tax

I email on the Optimus V just about every day, have reviewed Word/Powerpoint/PDF files on it, as well as edited a few Excel spreadsheets... I use it most frequently for reading the news (with the excellent RSS app Pure News in conjunction with Opera browser), and am generally quite satisfied...

I would have loved transitioning from the Optimus to the Triumph, but it really is unfortunate all the issues the Triumph suffers from, or at least, quite a number of them suffer... It's not surprising there are few developers, seeing it's relatively buggy, a carrier-specific device, and...

Great to hear you're enjoying the Triumph Even if you activate/pay for a month, you can cancel and obtain a refund--especially since you have the Optimus. I gave up on 3 Triumphs because of the poor connectivity (voice/data) and just deactivated/shifted the $25 to my Optimus. Easy call with...

As long as it works marginally well, which is more than I can say for 90% of the Triumphs sold, I don't mind waiting!

I would also support the additional documentation and description, either in the Wiki or the first post (or both, perhaps). Flashing a ROM is already intimidating enough, adding a simple table/matrix of differences would be quite helpful

Still enamored with my OV, but I, too, thank all the gracious and helpful developers :)

Agreed, whole-heartedly. That thread is dozens of pages now and growing. It would really beneficial to have an explanation right in the first post.

Just quoting reviews, but the screen on the OB is supposedly much better than anything VMUSA has right now. The OB also features the 2MP front camera Frankly, given how disappointed I am/was with my Triumphs, I wouldn't mind thinking of the Optimus Black as the Triumph v2.0, as long as the...

I would encourage folks to take a look at the many Triumph threads over at HoFo: Virgin Mobile USA Personally, I regularly observe -92 to -96 db with my Optimus V, but the Triumph is across the board weaker by ~8-10 db. Virgin Mobile's 3G network is already spotty at best, now coupled with the...

That's quite unfortunate... I rely on touch to locate the buttons when the phone is in my pocket (media play and media next), so it would really be inefficient for me to have to remove the phone from my pocket/bag every time I access it.

At a $300 price point, I highly doubt the Triumph will sell out... maybe a few shops in large urban areas

There are a few cases/skins on eBay for the X6, but I don't see a screen protector. I, too, wouldn't purchase unless I had at least a screen protector in hand. I keep my phone in my pocket, so that's a disaster waiting to happen

Just rooted my warranty replacement OV with Gingersnap. Outside of the tedious .NET installation, the processing was smooth as can be. Thanks to the developers!

Rumored release for 7/19!!! http://www.androidcentral.com/motorola-triumph-hitting-virgin-mobile-july-19
