Cingular Give's Acadamy Nominee's a free Moto RZR 3
Cingular released a PRESS RELEASE stating... "All directing and acting
nominees, including Hilary Swank, Cate Blanchett, Jamie Foxx and Clint
Eastwood, received the super-sleek handset in anticipation to the big event." i this a desperate grasp for new customer's by cingular, i wanna know what u think? You can read the press release @ cingular.com

story there
pretty pathetic.
although some customers call in requesting a free phone and give a pretty good preformance.

That is extremely old news, considering the Academy Awards were a few months back. Every year Academy Award nominees recieve gift bags and some sort of phone is always included in the gift bag. Considering this year's most hyped up, flashy, and unique phone was the RAZR it was only obvious that they would give this phone to the nominees. The nominees however did recieve the black version of the RAZR several months earlier than public release, due to the very fact of them being celebrities.
That little snippit in Cingular's recent news release is a very wise strategy, as a disgustingly large amount of people will flock to Cingular just to get their hands on this phone though. Would I call it a desperate grasp for new customers? ...
