I see that you are still waiting also. From what I have seen of the phone it is no bigger that my current Samsung A500. I was at my dealer today ( car didn't start) and I asked them for a price for the docking cradle for the 815. They told me $180.00 plus labour. From what I have been reading, bluetooth phones seem to suck the battery pretty quick, the docking cradle allows the phone to keep charging while it is in the car. I also heard from Bell Mobility today that the release of the 815 has been delayed for one to one and a half weeks , so I guess we keep waiting.

Just want to let you know that I picked up the Moto E815 tonight and paired it to my car in no time, the phone is great and having bluetooth in my 2004 E60 is just amazing. Transferred phone book and voice commands on e 60 work great.

The phone is a bit bigger than my samsung A500, but by the same token the keypad is a lot better. I too like small phones, however once you pair the blue tooth to your car, you will not care about anything else except how amazing it is to have a blue tooth enabled vehicle. This is by far the best phone that Bell has ever had. I charged the battery on Thursday, used the phone a lot yesterday and there is still a full charge showing on the meter.

More on the MOTO E815,
Just paired mine. It took me about 5 min or less to set it up.
Easy to setup, sounds good, I can see my phonebook, and people say they hear me clearly.
for the E815.

All depends what you use the phone for.
Moto v710 can be used as modem for laptop
in a pinch. e815 cannot. Important to me.
v710 camera sucks e815 is much improved.
not important to me.
e815 does EV-DO(video clip extra $ service from Verizon)
v710 does not. Not important to me.
v710 will work with Moto Phone Tools software to sync
contacts, calendar, and backup and restore phonebook.
e815 will not. Important to me.
v710 is my choice. call quality on v710 is the best I ever had.
