ATT Leftover Inventory

I'm a Cingular cust, tired of my old SE-616 and qualified to upgrade. I tried the M-551 - the software interface drove me nuts, so returned it. Don't mind spending up to $250 for good set of features. Bluetooth is required, and I don't like any of the phones in Cing's stable.

Sorry if this seems a bozo question, but ATT obviously has lots of leftovers. I like the features of the Audiovox 5600 smartphone. I'd buy one outright & unlock it for Cingular. ATT was selling it for $199, but the local ATT store now wants full retail (~ $350) ... is that logical? It would be about $250 on eBay, already unlocked.

Also, I've seen comment here that Cingular "prefers" not to have ATT software on their network ... what's that mean?

aTt is selling it as a new activation,and as a cingular customer then you'd know how upgrades pricing is compared to new activation pricing

That being said,you want to get a new ATT serrvice and have that phone for 199.99, otherwise no SALE, and The preference thing is that your data service will not work on your phone, the ATT brand phones were for Mmode and total different tech from MediaNet, so you can make and receive calls in you unlock it,but your data service will not work!!!!!
