2125 & WiFi

phortres

I apologize in advance if this question has been answered elsewhere and I have yet to find it...

From what I've read, the 2125 has WiFi but that feature has been turned off by Cingular. Is that correct? If I purchase an unlocked version of the 2125, will WiFi be available?

Thanks for the help!

Yes the Wifi has been turned off. If you purchase t-mobiles version (SDA) then it will have wifi enabled. Just make sure when u buy it is not cingular branded and u should be ok

Thanks! So to make sure I understand...even if the phone is an "unlocked" Cingular branded phone, the WiFi will not work.

Rather, I need to search for a T-Mobile version of the phone. I would assume the T-mobile version must be unlocked for me to use it with Cingular, correct?

Unbelievable! That's the kind of crap that made me leave Verizon. Dear Cingy, please remove head from anal tract. 👿

Cingular probably didn't order the 2125 with the wi-fi radio. It is an actual cost savings without it.

Thats exacty it Texas. They decided against it.
As far as cingy not having a wifi network, you better beleive they do, its just not techinically owned and operated by them . MA MA ATT(SBC) has a pretty extensive one that cingular piggybacks on.
