Phone compatability- ATT/cingular
Here is a real question from a layperson... I had an ATT family plan. My son lost his Nokia 3200 phone, and cingular tells me it is discontinued and I have to change plans and replace all of the phones. Is there a way to just replace his phone, other than buying one on E-bay? (I've had two bad experiences trying just that). What other phones can he use? What about 'unlocked' phones- would one of those work?
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.

Well, a nokia 3200 is a GSM phone, so if you managed to find an unlocked GSM phone it would work on your account. Aswell, fi you find an old ATT GSM phone on Ebay or through another method, that could work.
Just don't tell anyone I told you :-p

Well i'll be honest and tell you, but you won't like the answer.You can replace his phone with a unlocked phone, but you are in for a world of trouble 1)We as a company cingular/legacy blue, so if you get one, you can't call in to activate, since we don't suppo...
