Question
QUESTION: Are Verizon phones compatible with AT&T service? I have AT&T service but they don't have any phones that I'm interested in but Verizon has the cutest phone and I want it soooooo bad and it would really work for me.
ANSWER: Verizon phones are NOT compatible in any way with AT&T service. They use different technology. What is the cute phone that Verizon has that you want?

QUESTION: The phone is the LG EN V3. Several months ago AT&T had a phone almost just like it but it just didn't flip up to the keyboard. Can you advise?
The EnV3 is not compatible with AT&T and none of the phones that Verizon sells are compatible with AT&T. Currently, AT&T has LG Neon and LG Expo which are compatible phones to the EnV as is the LG Incite. They aren't all exactly the same, but pretty close. The EnV series is a little different than some of the others, but I think you will like these other devices. A flip up isn't always the best thing because they can get damaged, but the EnV is a cool device. I hope this helps. Thanks. DebiN
