I have the original Jawbone as well and seem to be doing just fine with it. I think it sounds like your Jawbone is hyper-sensitive with its noise-cancelling settings. Have you tried disabling the noise-cancelling on the Jawbone?

I have the original Jawbone bluetooth and everytime I try to use it with the LG Dare everyone tells me it sounds like someone is trying to beep in or my voice keeps dropping.
Has anyone had this problem? I’ve spoken with LG, Verizon and Jawbone and everyone keeps telling me it’s compatible and should work fine.
I have replaced the LG twice and the Jawbone twice, nothing changes. Any help??? Thanks

To start off, Great review.

- Is the calendar just a calendar, or can you add appointments? I’m especially interested in adding recurring appointment with audio reminders.

- Also, the Verizon website says it can take an hour to save a picture to the SD card. Is that dependent on how high the resolution is, or something about the SD card? That seems like an awful long time for such a feature packed camera.

- Even though the blackberry I’m replacing with the Dare will be deactivated, Is there a way to transfer contacts if you don’t use Outlook? Bluetooth maybe between phones?

- What options are there to transfer non-drm’d music files to the Dare via PC to Dare? My PC does not have Bluetooth.

- What is contained in the disc that comes with the phone?

Most of these questions will probably be answered when I get the phone and play around with it, but I’m still curious.

I’ve been working for days trying to get RemoSync working with my new LG Dare but i keep getting a “Bad Request” error. Verizon isn’t any help and the credentials should be the exact same as my Q, which was workign just fine (ruling out issues on the Exchange side.) I like the Dare but without sync with my email, calendar and contacts it just doesn’t get the job done.

This phone as some great features but lacks on outlook contact/calendar sync capabilities which is important for alot of us. I tried it for a week but plan on exchanging for a PDA.

Doesn’t need it with true 3g Rev A. Wi-Fi isn’t as fast as 3g. Additionally, Verizon is not going to put out anything other than a smartphone with Wi-Fi anytime soon – it would compete with their own services.
