Nokia 6682

The Nokia 6682 is a pretty good phone and I want to purchase it but Cingular must be crazy to charge $249.00 for a two-year contract. I guess Cingular never noticed that the phone cost $299.00 on the Nokia website. Does anybody foresee the price dropping soon? The reason I want to get this phone is that the call quality is great and it is fully compatible with my Powerbook G4. I would really appreciate any heads up! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Blue Razr

does anybody know why the blue razr is priced at 49.99 on the cingular website while the black and pink ones are 99.99? is the blue one not selling as well or is this a precursor to the arrival of the v3i?

TDMA customers

This new TDMA fee seems to be working very well in my market. They are coming out of the dark and upgrading to GSM; just so they don't get charged the fee. lol.
How is is going in your market? I'd like to get the scoop 😛

New feature offered by major carriers?

Does anyone know if Cingular or any of the other major carriers will offer a feature that lets you add 10 of the most frequent people that you call to your calling network and receive/make unlimited calling for those? I know Alltel, Suncom, and U.S. Cellular has this feature (Suncom's is called "Mobile to Anyone")....

That would be a nice feature....

Nokia 6102i vs. 6126

my dad needed a new phone because his samsung a670 was trashed. we went to cingular because he wanted the nokia 6126. the rep at the store said the phone wouldn't be avaliable for a few weeks and we should wait until it comes out because it will be the best phone out for cingular. well we needed a phone that day so my dad got the 6102i. my dad really likes the 6126 but i was wondering if it is a good phone. if not he'll just stick with the 6102i.

thanks.

Thanks MSNBC.

Read this article... Pretty standard ignorant assessment of the wireless industry.

Then read the comments.

People will never understand why things are the way they are.

One particular comment intrigued me, it won't let me copy it, but it was from B Hollis, St. Louis MO.

He claims he had Cingular, cancelled, paid $175 per line, then switched to AT&T, which then got bought by Cingular, and then cancelled again.

Now if I'm not mistaken, Cingular's ETF's have always been $150, up until a few months ago.

Alright, I'm considering the new treo from cingular, the 750, but how is the network?

I currently have the 700w with verizon and, while I love the coverage and speed of evdo, they have pissed me off royaly and made an error so egregious, it cost me some cash.

So, I'm condering switching.

The 750 intrigues me because it has double the ram as well as the ability to run on the hsdpa network. However, I have no idea where this special network is; cingular's website lacks a lot of detail about the particular network. If it is as paltry as I am assuming, how fast is edge which is what I am assuming I will be under the vast majority of the time anyway.

Is edge everywhere I get normal coverage with the phone? Is hsdpa everywhere I get normal coverage? If not, how long will it take to roll out hsdpa in LA? Weeks? Mon...

Poor old Radio Shack. (they reported 2nd quarter earnings) Cingular can't save them.

"RadioShack said wireless sales rose 2%, but the company pledged to change its approach to that business, saying it's different from the traditional consumer electronics retailing racket and calls for different strategies. RadioShack noted that consumer awareness of its status as a dealer for Cingular, the leading U.S. wireless provider, is low. The company said other trends are working against it as well and said all the gains in its wireless business came at its kiosks.

"RadioShack's wireless tactics did not sufficiently deliver results in the face of changing competitive dynamics and maturing consumer demand," the company said. "To exploit its unique position in the marketplace of wireless retailing, the company is evolving its approa...

Why are Cingular phones so expensive?

Can anybody tell me why Cingular phones are so expensive? I have been told that when cingular releases the V3i, the price could be 299.99 with a 2 year, and another store said 349.99 after a 50 dollar MIR with 2 years!!! The Verizon V3m is much cheaper than that, and I am aware that some of the capabilities of the V3m have been crippled, but still, it is only 99.99. Does the V3i justify a price of 299.99 or more? I dont think so. I really hope that when Cingular release this phone, it fails miserably. 😈 They have skrewed us for months, and for them to slap on a huge pricetag when the Krazr is just a few months away is absolutely ridiculous.
