What kind of proof are you looking for? Also just because a device picks up a IPV4 address does not mean that VZW has not made it a requirement for new devices to support IPV6. Though in the end I am not here to convince you. Just sharing some info on the state of VZW's LTE requirements on new equipment. Keep hoping for new Windows phones, you wont see any till Apollo on big red.

Also, supporting IPv6 doesn't constitute having "full LTE support". 3GPP's specification is so extensive vastly encompassing that I doubt any phone manage support the whole specification. The point here is that VZW has made it a requirement for the OS to support IPV6, which is why Mango and Tango are out of luck, its not about implementing every bit of the spec.

Those that claim it supports it are fooling themselves. The OS does not currently. Apollo will. VZW has been really firm about all new LTE devices needing to support IPV6. Draw your own conclusions. But those that are waiting for new devices before Apollo, you are better off switching carriers is all i am going to say.

The difference is in the implementation that the carriers do. LTE is a broad term, each carrier has different implementations. One of verizons requirements is not met in either of the upcoming releases, and will not be met till Apollo.

My update from 7712 to 7720 was done via Zune update yesterday, and it was easy and painless. Everything worked like a charm, as far as the update goes. Still no visual VM. Looks like its in big red's court now.

True, but how about promoting the new OS, which is the only direction that MSFT is going with mobile OS at the moment, meaning windows mobile OS as it was is a dead product. So change the images on the link, and promote the OS

is your device Dev unlocked? that message usually shows up on dev unlocked devices, specially after dev build upgrades. If you do have a dev unlocked device, check to see that its still unlocked. if now try to unlock again. or remove the dev unlock and then go and add the unlock again.

My AT&T service was terrible at home, full dead zone pretty much. I tried T-Mobile last year and it was good but their out of country service was terrible, so this time we are going with VZW, so far so good. Yes CDMA has its downside, but at this point its the best for us.  I don't mind the data/voice thing, since i just don't run into case that often. As for VVM, yah it all seems to be in big red's court now, i sure hope they don't go a build some app to do it, since the Mango integration is really awesome, adn would be the best solution. Perhaps we can get lucky and have a VZW rep speak up here.
