Can the LG Vu's touchscreen be used with a stylus, or is it heat sensitive like the iPhone?

You can use what they call a "Universal" or "Soft" Stylus. These are stylus that are very rounded on their ends and can be used with I-Phones, LG Vu's, etc. Just Google "LG Vu Stylus" and you will see many of them in the searched links.

Question:
where can i find cheap phones when you already have a plan?
Answer:
Unfortunately you will likely have to pay several hundred dollars no matter where you go to buy a brand new phone. If you don't, be suspicious as this may be stolen, refurbished, or just a plane old scam. How the cell phone industry works is through a commission system. The retailer (lowcostcells.com) pays $xxx.xx for the phone. When we sign up a new plan, we are paid $xxx.xx. We use our commission money to net the cost of the phones way down (often times until they are free). Then, the money left over is our profit. Sometimes, we net the phones down to free and the manufacturer or carrier offers an additional rebate that we let you keep so that you actually make money on the deal. But without buying a new plan or renewing an existing plan, we can only offer the phone at a higher retail price.
This phone without a new plan or plan renewal is $269.99. When you find the LG VU on our site, click the "order now" link next to the phone. This opens a new window. Inside that new window you will see right next to the phone picture "price without new account". There you will want to click "more info +". This opens a pull down section where you can click the green "buy phone only" link.

Question:
iam not at&t customer can i get the free phone and once i revice it then active it or do i have to active it right away and can i keep my same phone number . do at&t have any company discount on thier bill e.g i have sprint phone and our company is with sprint and other companys and they give discount on the bill if we buy a phone and have a plane wth them
Answer:
When you order a phone from AT&T it will be activated a day or two after receipt. You are allowed to keep the same number and will be given that option during the check out process. As far as company discounts, this is strictly done with AT&T after receipt. You will just need to call their direct customer service number and work through any plan discounts with them. We simply only sign people up for the plans and ship their new phones two them as we are an independently owned operation separate of any of our carriers.

Question:
I have att now and it is a family plan with my wife. If i get a phone here with a new plan what does that do to her phone. Our contract has been up for a year. If I got one of your phones can she keep hers because she like it.
Thanks
Answer:
All you have to do is renew / upgrade your current account. You will need to do this via our customer service representatives at 1-888-843-2380 (code # 126615 when prompted). Doing this by phone will allow you to just upgrade your phone. To do this on the website would cause you to upgrade both phones. She shouldn't have any trouble keeping her current phone if you call in.

Question:
if i upgrade my phone do i have to buy the internet for it
Answer:
Easy answer and one that I think you were looking for...."No". There is an option to purchase this during the check out screen but the phone works just fine without it. You can always contact your carrier down the road if you decided that it is something you want to add later on.

Question:
how does the free phones work when i have an upgrade
Answer:
All phones featured on the website are for new customers only where service is provided (by zip code). There are always select zip codes (especially in rural areas) where the plan may not be offered. As far as for a cell phone upgrade, sometimes the carrier offers the same deal on the upgrade as they do for the new customers. Other times they do not. For my default zip code, the LG Vu CU920 looks like it will be FREE as well for customer upgrades / extensions and will work in the same manor as a new contract would!
The best way to get to the upgrade feature is to search for the CU920 on our site. When the phone is listed via the search results click "see details". Once clicked, the screen will refresh and the phone will be featured exclusively. To the right of the phone picture you will see a link for the upgrade option. Click where it says "Buy with a plan upgrade (You must be eligible for upgrade from the carrier)." That will take you to a new screen where you can proceed with the order.

Question:
i am already on a at&t plan. do i really get a free phone or does it cost. and does it matter that i am aon a plan already
Answer:
Do you know if your contract expired and are eligible for an upgrade? If so, select the phone of your choice. In this instance it looks like you want the LG Vu CU920. Once you click the "order now" button next to the phone, a new screen should open showing the phone with a suggested plan. To the left of the phone there is a button that says "Renew / upgrade your phone". Click that and the page should refresh to this option. Make sure that the plan is what you would like it to be or change it by selecting the "more plans" button where the plan is described. Now click the green arrow labeled "add to cart." The new screen that appears is the screen where you will pick available phone accessories and plan features to customize this cell phone and plan to your liking. When satisfied with your accessories and features chosen (also make sure to have entered your current phone number), click "continue." The next screen allows you to review your selections. If satisfied, simply click "checkout." The rest of the way you just need to enter your information for the order to proceed to finalization. If accepted, your phone should arrive in a few days!
