WTB V60s Mercedes Phone

I am looking for anyone who would like to sell theirs. Must be the s version, Verizon will not activate anything else, and I have a V60S cradle.

Only the S model has the GPS chip Verizon will no longer ativate any other models. I already tried a C they said as of 6/05 FCC rules will not allow it.

ESN shanges can be done, but no new activations. I spent three hours on the phone with them.

I was told that you can tell in a few ways, one there is a symbol in the center of the display when the phone is on, two when you take the battery out it should say V60S, and by the esn. Email me directly if you like at Mrichfield@telesourceone.com

V60x

The Mercedes v60x is E911 compatible and should therefore be activated by Verizon; it also has new features the standard v60 doesn't. I have a Mercedes v60x I'm willing to sell. I bought it thinking it was a Sprint phone; turns out it is a Verizon phone. I'll PM you.
