I have had a Krave for about a month. The web browser is almost useless, it has a round thumb size pointer that you must tap to navigate. The problem is you can’t get it to stay still so when you tap it, you get something totally different than what you were aiming at. Also, the battery does not last long, about three to twelve hours (depending on your use) then you need a charge.
At this time there is no software to sync with the PC, for me that is a big problem. You can purchase a USB cord, but why?? USB cord should equal sync??? Additional ringtones must be purchased from Verizon for $2.99 up, TV plan requires more money. The data plan is reasonable, $15 for unlimited with a voice plan.

See below from Verizon Support. It would appear that they think you can at least sync music to the phone. I believe this only works with Rhapsody though versus using something like Microsoft active sync. Plus you have to download the USB drivers from Motorola’s website to your PC.

How to Transfer Music from Your PC to Your Phone

1. Open the V CAST Music with Rhapsody software on your PC.
2. Use the USB cable to connect your phone to your PC. Please have your phone turned on.
3. Your phone should automatically be placed into the Sync Music state and show Connected. On the PC, you should see the phone listed in the Sources portion of the V CAST Music with Rhapsody software.
4. On the PC, drag and drop songs or playlist that you wish to transfer to the phone listing in the Sources area.
5. When the sync process completes, on your phone. Exit the Sync Music application and disconnect the cable from your phone.
6. Under the Music & Tones menu, open My Music to view and play your music.

This phone sucks. I’m sorry I bought it. I’m trying to unload it and get something that actually works.

I have had this phone for two months, and now it’s just stopped working. It was cooler in the pictures, and when i didn’t own the piece of junk!

LH is 100% right i need to remember to stick to LG, I have never had this much trouble with one phone (well two considering its my SECOND ONE!!!!) i have 8 more months with this time vampire. 30 minutes to type a 1 sentence text message, no speed dial, auto spell correct corrects real words into others (ex and changed to her….) people usually respond to me with ??? because they do not know what i am trying to say after my Krave messes with the words i typed and backspaces random things. It takes 5 clicks to start texting someone and that is if you get them all on the first time which is a rare experience, i complained to customer service and they had me take out the battery and put it back in and also reset it (do they really pay these people?) The only way to get use from this phone is if you are someone who does not text, has very little contacts, does not take videos record sounds or take a lot of pictures, and only uses cell phones for emergencies.(although i find that having to take 5min to dial 911 awfully dangerous) Doesnt even look that cool after the top screen starts to get scratched and it actually traps dirt and dust under the top screen making the actual touch screen more dirty/smudged etc, DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!
