UPDATE !

Today I got the patch and connected a V710 Verizon phone to my E60.

The Bluetooth setup with the new V710 firmware patch works well now. On one mobile-to-mobile call there was an awful echo though. Most of the callers say I sound good.

For V710 (Verizon) users you have 2 choices:

Get the 8700_01.40.OR firmware upgrade. Send the phone to this VZW store, the only one doing the upgrade:

Attn: Cliff Jackson or Mike Ticer
Verizon Wireless
2403 S Stemmons Fwy# I-10
Lewisville, TX 75067
Call ahead - the phone # is 972-459-7111

OR

I did the patch myself and it went just like the link says. It took about 10 minutes after I installed the software.
