Anybody have anything to add, if true I guess its a little more then just a name change 😎

How is the recepetion in southeast michigan? I have had Verizon for about 15 years now and want to switch to Cingular. I dont like Verizon's phones because they criple the bluetooth and they all have the same UI.
Thanks, baller.

Coworker from the store across town sent a girl to my store for a laptop connect card. I ask what kind of laptop do you have, she responded "I don't have a laptop, the girl at the other store told me it will work with my PC"

I followed up with the employee and she then states, "Oh, I thought it would work." I asked, "When's the last time you heard of a PC having a PCMCIIA slot in it?" And then the revalation, she says, "Well I'd have to say I'd never heard of a PC having that..."

Hi. I have insurance on my cingular account, and im ready to buy a new phone, the moto krzr unlocked. its 30 dollars more and no contract! But i was wondering whether or not it would effect my insurance. would i still be insured assuming the cingular version of the krzr is covered by insurance? thanks

Apple iPhone to Generate 50 Percent Margin, According to iSuppli*s Preliminary Analysis
January 18, 2007

Each Apple iPhone sold will generate nearly a 50 percent gross margin for Apple Inc. and partner Cingular Wireless, giving the companies a hefty profit, as well as plenty of room for future price cuts, according to a preliminary functional Bill of Materials (BoM) estimate created by iSuppli Corp.

iSuppli estimates the 4Gbyte version of the Apple iPhone will carry a $229.85 hardware BoM and manufacturing cost and a $245.83 total expense, yielding a 50.7 percent margin on each unit sold at the $499 retail price, said Andrew Rassweiler, teardown services manager and senior analyst for iSuppli.

Meanwhile, the 8...

Any other new info?

Question...I had verizon for so long and love the reception

I am switching over to Cingular

I live in Queens NY and travel alot to Manhattan and Brooklyn

How is the reception in New York??

Anyone can help please

Should I switch??

I have Cingular Go Phone service. I don't think things will change with what I have, but still what should we go phone customers expect?

My cousin is due for a new phone and an upgrade.

She wants a combo phone/mp3 player.

I know both phones can be upgraded to 2MB.

Which one would you all recommend for the money, quality, options and durability?

Hi all,

Can any Cingular users in the Manhattan and/or Queens area give me some feedback on the quality of their calls - reception, signal strength, clarity, etc...

I used to be an AT&T user and have been using Verizon for the past few years. I like Verizon, but Sony Ericsson phones are tempting me to switch to a GSM network.

Thanks in advance!

Cingular: We Made Apple Bend by Sascha Segan
1.10.07

LAS VEGAS—Movie studios and record labels have bent to Apple. But in the end, Apple bent to Cingular with a multi-year, exclusive US contract for an entire line of different iPhone models, Glenn Lurie, Cingular's president of national distribution told journalists at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2007) today.

When asked about a give-and-take leading to the Apple-Cingular partnership, Lurie said, "I'm not sure we gave anything." Later, he commented, "I think they bent a lot." That bending included allowing the phone to be locked to Cingular, just one of several restrictions on the new iPhone. Press reports today said the phone will not accept third-party applications, though ...

i have been looking at posts and i am sick and tired...
why is it... ( i live in canada) why is it that americans seem to think that everyone owes them everything for nothing,

i used to deal with calls ppl asking for mot razr phones free no contract yada yada yada

seriously no one owes anyone nothing...
cingular provides the service, and customer pays for that,, dont come talking bout " my service sucks" if it does do something boutit. dont sit there and be like... " i have been trying to get this solvedfor over a yr now" because that is wrong... no one will sit there with bad service for a yr if they dont like it.

dont call ion to reps and be like... i pay my bill on time... and everything like that

Hello everyone...Please help me
I am comming to CIngular from Verizon.
Thinking about buying the Pearl
Is this a good idea?
If not anyother phone from cingular anyone reccommend...pnone? PDA? SMARTPHONE?
Dont matter to me what kind of phone
Any Reccommendations?

how come the cingular forum is still called "cingular" is phonescoop going to change the cingular forum name to at&t anytime soon, or the rebranding isnt complete.

About four years ago, I subscribed to a charter GSM plan with AT&T Wireless (now Cingular) that offered 1,000 anytime minutes for $39/month, no roaming or LD charges US-wide. This now seems like a very good deal, based on the current plans I've seen from Cingular and others, and it seems to meet my needs really well. Since I'm no longer on a contract and paying less than current plans, I can't help but wonder when Cingular is going to decide to mandate a change in my plan that either restricts services or raises my rate.

Has anyone experienced a change in plan provisions after you've progressed from a term contract to month-to-month?

FYI....

Starting 6-1-07, Cingular will be taking away our exterior Cingular signs and replacing them with the new AT&T signs. This is for the Dallas market.

As for store priority and markets, it may vary.

I never understood the plan of free roaming when you don't even get the option to use it???? I got this phone A707 because of all the band width
GSM 850
GSM 900
GSM 1800
GSM 1900
WCDMA 850
WCDMA 1900
Thinking if I was stuck somewhere I would still get network. None???? Why doesn't cingular phones go to other networks if it's free roaming. Or what can I do to set up my phone to look for another signal if there isn't any network? Thank you

is there anyway to download sirus radio or upload and listen to my own sirus radio account from my 8525? i know cingular has that exclusive deal with xm mobile and sprint is sirus so downloading sirus via cingular is more than likely outta the question. but anyothe way would still work.

Just wondering what some prospects where that might be released prior to June.. Anyone?
