I'm thinking of getting a Verizon/Mororola RAZR V3c and want to know if I can use Address Book to sync with the phone. Sometime back I had a nice setup with AT&T and a Sony/Ericcson phone. Does Verizon support bluetooth and 10.4?
Any suggestions? Thanks.

I have a Verizon branded Moto v710, and it while it has bluetooth, and my mac sees it (G5 Quad and 10.4.5), no syncing. Verizon is notorious for disabling features of their phones, although I did hear that they were easing up on that policy with current phones.
I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work tho.
Verizon's signal is great, the rest of the company sucks.
Oh, note that address book does sync up when using a USB cable tho.

I am getting ready to sign up again for Verizon as my two year plan is almost up. They disable bluetooth features on purpose and for no apparent reason at all. Really does suck.
It's just hard to believe how truly bad all of the wireless companies are. Never thought anyone could be worse than the airline industry but they are in first place by a mile.
