I just picked up my Optimus V a few days ago! This certainly ranks in the "very sweet deal" category! The price has dropped on the phone to $149 now and I had a 10% off coupon at Best Buy (So I'd og get you're $50 back from Wallyworld)

I was actually still using my 770 as a cheap GPS (mameo mapper) but won't be doing that anymore. Google Maps and Navigator work great on the Optimus V and I hear Google Navigation will actually support offline driving directions sometime this summer.

The only problem with VM is no roaming so when you're out of Sprints coverage you're SoL, but can still use wi-fi hotspots.

Now the question is what to do with my 770? I don't want to sell it, but don't want it sitting in the closet idle. I suppose I could us it as a low powered (as in energy use) Linux device...it was a fun ride n770!
