30 Day Trial Question

I am looking to switch from Alltel to either AT&T or Verizon. I am thinking of doing a 30 day AT&T trial from mid December through January. I will be traveling from NC through VA to West VA and into DC. Also out to Seattle and the adjoining area. I hope this would give me a good idea of how the network really is? Other than fees for calls, texts, etc., what do I have to pay for cancelling? I am thinking of a Tilt or an iPhone and a Curve or Pearl for my wife?

Also any input on coverage in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and Asheville, NC areas? Please no Verizon trolls. I know your network is supposedly the best, but the phones don't impress me.

Thanks for all input.

Kinda Irked...

I have 2 lines of service & one of my lines reflects it is eligible for upgrade AFTER my contract end date, which is in February. This didnt seem right to me, based on my previous upgrade history with AT&T/Cingular/AT&T. I called in and a rep got authorization to do an upgrade for me because of the upgrade date not listing correctly. I told her I wanted a deal for a W580i w/ a 1gb card that is online. She said it wasnt guaranteed I would get that deal, but her manager would try to overide it. I was on hold for an hour & the manager was having issues, so I was told I would get a call back. Didnt happen. So I call today & I am told that i am SOL by a manager and that I wouldnt be allowed to upgrade until the end of March, after my contract is ...

question for the at&t reps

i just had a customer come into my store (sprint) and ask about our blackberrys. now she only wanted the data service which i told her that we could do and that voice (if used) is $.20 per minute without a voice package. she then told me to go ahead and active her because the at&t rep told her that he could not add only the data plan and that he would have to add the voice as well equaling around $80 per month total. my question is, is this the way you guys have to do this? or did the rep not know that he could? also do you guys get paid for the price plan as well as any other attachables? if so, i was thinking that was his motovation in adding the extra voice package.

Unlocking Code for LG SHINE

Do you know where I could find one. I like the phone and I like AT&T, but I do not have a need for Cingular Video nor AT&T music.

Backup 3g

Having searched both hofo and googling for reviews of 3g models, I want some honest opinions of 3g models available.

Preferences:

Flip
Gmail java capable
Good/Great battery life in 2g mode
LOUD earpiece
mp3 ringtone capable

I've been glancing at the cu515, the a517, slm etc...

No interest in a slide...its a backup phone to an unlocked phone to be purchased at a later date, you know, a phone to use when I go around town

I've phonescooped them all and searched the threads around here and just want some general consensus on whats the best of the bunch.

Any insight would be much obliged.

It's definite. AT&T still has the best phones!

I thought that the new Vz phones would actually be better than what they are. The Voyager turned out to be an over-hyped regular phone with sub par battery life and inconsistent touch screen.

(Nokia N75) Allow Sim Card to Send Message?

I have a Nokia N75 and every now and then when I open the flip, it would ask: "Allow Sim Card to Send Message?". The left button is to "Send" and the right button is to "Cancel". So far I only "Cancel". What is that all about? Thank you so much for any help.
