Sony Ericsson z750 on the latest rebate form

As of today, 1-5-08, the Sony Ericsson z750 is on the rebate form that's just been updated, but this relate only goes until 1-19, so if this phone is being released that soon, we should see it any day now.

Any idea of when this phone will hit shelves, it looks fairly nice.

What Is Unlocked ??

Hi everyone. I am thinking of purchasing a new Blackberry 8310 or 8320 through a company called Colorware. It's a company that will color your phone for you. It's really cool. My question, you have to purchase the phone "unlocked", and I'm not quite sure what that means. I plan on obtaining AT&T service for the Blackberry. Can I buy either the 8310 or 8320 through Colorware and get service on At&T ? What information would At&T need from the phone ? The 8310 is an AT&T phone, but could I get the 8320 instead and activate it on AT&T (it's a T-MObile phone). Thanks for the advice in advance ...

Care reps, asurion reps?

How do you view XBM?

Are they generally nice and knowledgeable?

Do they know what they're talking about?

I do warranty, have been for over 2 years.
I think we do a great job. I know there are some bad apples in every bunch, and they quickly terminate themselves.

What is the consensus?


Thanks for your input

Security Deposit Question and Story

I had a guy come in yesterday to migrate from Cell One and add a line. I migrated his line, but the new line came up with a $500 deposit. I thought for sure he'd tell me to forget it, but he just turned to his dad and offered to go half and half. The guy paid the $500 deposit AND $200 for phones. If you have bad credit, how can you afford a $500 deposit? Shouldn't you be paying off your debts?

Does AT&T have stricter credit check and deposit policies than other carriers?

I used to be a Cell One agent and we hardly ever had a credit check come back with a deposit higher that $125. Since the migration to AT&T, I have had over a dozen potential new customers come back with $750 deposits. Many of them have told me that Verizon was only ask...

Just Got the Nokia N82.............IPhone who?

Received this phone and I have to say it is extremely powerful. The pics are great however I have it set to 5x7 mode.

WiFi found my home network and locked on easily. The phone auto set up for ATT MMS and media net easily. I don't miss 3G. Its plenty fast enough for my needs and w/o 3G the battery will last far longer. Reception so far is better then my wife's Sony.

After a day I have a couple mem cards loaded. The A-GPS isreally accurate but I bought the GArmin XT program which is akin to having a stand alone GPS. All non ATT network features work without the sin card including file transfer, WiFi, GPS, Music Player, games, etc. A nice touch.


I will post a full review after a few weeks of use and the initial rush wears off.I c...

Insurance question...

Our dog just chewed up my fiance's phone 🤣
It still works but not well. We just upgraded in May so I know he can't again. Question is, if he calls and makes an insurance claim should he tell the truth or say he lost it? Also he has the 6126 and really doesn't like it, are they going to give him that phone again or replace it with the 6555?

How does AT&T view porting numbers to new carrier vs. cancelling service

Just curious if AT&T views porting your number to a different carrier within the 30 day trial the same as cancelling service.

Blackberry 8310 vs Samsung Blackjack II

Hi everyone ...My wife is trying to decide on a new smartphone and she has narrowed her choices to the Blackberry 8310 and the Blackjack II. She wants to be able to check her email but is not a big email user. She wants a great speakerphone and call clarity/reception is priority #1. She would like the phone that has a great user interface and easily accessable internet. So, which phone could meet most if not all criteria ? Thanks for your inputs .....

Back to AT&T

So, I'll be back in the US/AT&T after being roaming overseas for more than 18 months. My question/concern is: will my phone work properly after being outside the network for so long? (You know, the whole going from Cingular to AT&T alpha tag thing)

I would not recommend the LG SHINE

I have had this phone for one month with moderate use, the slider no longer works smoothly, it cuts in and out of reception when my other phones do not, and it freezes like nothing and most of my stuff is saved to a memory card.

bad purchase

At&t signal in my house sucks - Milwaukee

Has anyone else had issues with their phones not working once they get into their house. I live in the Milwaukee area and I have a great signal down the street, and as soon as I get in my house - dead!

My contract is up in a few days and I was thinking about switching over to US Cellular as a lot of people in this area have similar issues and have switched also (US Cellular works in houses). I am not sure if getting a newer phone will have better/stronger software or what. I don't claim to know anything about the phones, therefore why I am here.

Tell me something.

I have an 8525, WM6 version. I was looking at the 8925 (HTC Tilt), and aside from more memory, built in Instant Messaging, and a 3MP camera, I see no need to switch. Am I missing something?
