Nokia 8801 -- Is Cingular getting it?

Could you please tell me if Cingular is going to get the Nokia 8801?

I have been a Cingular customer for over 3 years now, and I have been extremely happy with the service and coverage. However I am thinking of switching to T-Mobile so that I can get the 8801. I know you can get it unlocked but then again it wont be insured.

Any Insight ??? -- Your comments are appreciated

What I have not been saying

I have worked in Cingular customer service in a variety of ways. Cingular customer service reps have gotten bashed a lot. Cingular customer is service has gotten better but still has a long way to go. The number one problem is reps are not treated with very well. The good reps leave due to lack of career path. Cingular is not an employer of choice for customer service reps. For the good reps it is a place to go till they find another job. For the bad reps it becomes a place that will put up with their no can do attitude. Cingular customer service will continue struggle as long as they are not an employer of choice for the customer service rep. In turn customers tend to have a bad expereince.

Messaging Bundles

Recently, Cingular introduced new messaging bundles that really don't give the customer a variety of choices in prices and quantity. My question is if Cingular would like to really corner the market, why not offer more competitive packages and prices to their new and existing customers?

For example, one of their "bundles" includes 3,000 messages of any type for $19.99, while over here at T-mobile, we have UNLIMITED for $14.99.

Also, "MEdiaNet Bundles" go for $14.99 with 1000 anykind msg's and 5 mb of GPRS usage. Over here at T-mobile, we have UNLIMITED GPRS usage for %5.99 a month. Combined prices for unlimited msg's and GPRS at T-mobile are $20.98 a month for everything UNLIMITED.

Now, I am a Cingular employee and I know that the ...

Can someone clairify something for me?

It's been my understanding for many, many months that UMTS/HSDPA is being deployed soon after network integration is completed. Is this correct? or not? Because after reading that Miami will have UMTS/HSDPA as soon as Aug is very misleading to me. When I look on the MTi map tool one can say that this market hasn't been integrated yet (not even started!!)
What do you guys think about this?

Confused.

that new phone " blue v3" is a v3i... not a regular razr

released..

on the cingular website, the " Blue RAZR"

is labeled as a V3, but anyone with a V3i knows the keypad and outershell is that of a v3i and not a V3.

you can see the larger black area with the M logo on it that can glow the "blue" light.

so maybe that'll help with all your

"when's the v3i coming out" questions.




------------------------------------


plus that color is a v3i color... it's not a cosmic blue.. like everyone says on their websites. that's weird though.

----------------------------------

basically all i'm saying is cingular released a blue RAZR, but the picture on the wbsite is a blue v3i.

Vodafone SIM cards

Are they 64K like ours? or do they have larger ones? 128K? My area manager keeps talking about these SIM cards, but I've never heard about cingular getting 128K SIM cards. Is he nuts? ๐Ÿ˜•

Possible Cingular Newbie

I'm thinking about joining Cingular, mainly for the ability to buy any GSM phone and swap the sim without having to go through cst svc. Some questions and concerns are:

1) Can I buy any unlocked or cingular locked GSM phone, even if it's used in Europe (say off Ebay) and not available in the US?

2) Text/Pic msg - Is there a unlimited or near unlimited plan?

3) Will Cing one day offer the circle of friends deal?

4) What is the fastest data servc available now, UMTS or 3G?
