Rod,

I too am with Verizon and read somewhere that Verizon Wireless service would work with the TCH, however, you could not download your address book. Therefore you'd have to do it manually. However, I came upon a post on another webboard where someone claimed that he could download it using an LG8300. Don't know if it's true or not.

According to the TCH owner's manual the car can accept about 5 different cell phones.
