I agree, I like the phone a lot--keep in mind I'm uninterested in "get it now" or downloading anything else so, all is good. The signal strength in my area is excellent. It's a tri-mode phone and I get a clear signal in tough analog spots (I'm in the NYC metro area and can't believe that the digital signal isn't as strong as it should be, way too many drop-spots however, that it is the case.)
Good news, the vibrate feature does exists--hold down the star (*) key for a couple of seconds and it will automatically switch to manner mode (vibrate mode).
Repeat the process to switch back to normal mode (ring tone mode).
I'm interested in knowing if this helps--please reply.

I just got this cell phone and I think it is great. However, there is one flaw in my opinion. It has no stand alone vibrating alert. The vibrate is connected to the high ringer. So the phone either rings or it is off. I don't know why they got rid of the stand alone vibrate. The lg 6000 has this option. Does anyone know why they removed this feature? Or did I just get one without it.
