C'MON!!!
This whole thing with Cingular buying out ATT kinda confused me a bit. Like it was a good move for them, but i live in Utah and Cingular doesn't have service at all in Utah! And i keep wondering how they can buy out another company and still not have service in all of the states...

If AT&T had coverage in Utah, then Cingular® will have coverage in Utah now, won't they? 😕 Or am I missing your point?

I think he may be saying that Cingular doesn't sell service in Utah...like he can't get a Utah number from Cingular. (If my take on his question is wrong, I apologize in advance)

Keep in mind NOW is the last 2 weeks.

Apparently Alaska is the missing state in the equation...can't say I remember why. I think that means its the only state where the phones won't work.
