New Get It Now for new phones - VX-6100?

[Guest]

I just picked up a new VX-6100 through NE2 and am pretty happy with it
thus far. Haven't made many calls, but l do like its features. I'm coming
off a Motorola 7868, the standard I'm basing the 6100 on, plus the 6100
has a nice camera.

Anyway, I am really attracted to VZW's GetItNow driving directions apps,
and was hoping they would be available for the 6100 by now, but I was
proven wrong.

I emailed VZW about availability, and they said the apps were still being
tested. Once testing proves ok, the phone will be added.

So, how long does it take apps on GetItNow to get approved for new phones,
particularly the 6100?

Thanks.

Scott

I think that some of the apps are only available on particular phones.
Mine for instance has about 5 times the available apps as my wife's
phone does. There is constantly apps being added to mine, but there
have only been about 2 or 3 new ones made available to her over the
past 8 months or so.
