Add a Line to Family Talk

I have an older Family Talk plan; 850 minutes for $60.00. If I wanted to add another line to Family Talk, could I add it to my old plan or do I have to switch to a new current plan?

ROKR vs W600i

I need a hot mutlimedia phone, that works nicely as a phone. i need music and I'm going between the ROKR and W600i. I'm hearing the W600i can hold between 20 - 100 songs, but what about video? Can I record a show on the sony? As for the ROKR, is it true I can watch shows on it? Any word on the ROKR E2 release date? Is the only reason reason the ROKR is getting neg reviews is the design and 100 song limit?

HELP...Need one ASAP?!!!!!!

Cingular not delivering SMS

I noticed that once in a while SMS to my Cingular GSM 6230 Nokia dont get delivered. I called customer service and they acknowledged it as a known problem and gave me a $5 credit. I am just curious about two things:

1) would things be better for me if i switch to a different "Message center number"? Right now i am using +12029042030

2) is there a way for me to tell what MHz my phone is using? (800MHz/1800MHz/1900MHz) I am on unlocked Nokia 6230.

Sierra 860

I activated my first UMTS data card today, and lemme tell you... it was fast! I can't wait to get one for myself now. We ran a few searches from Google first, which took about a second to return information on. We didn't download any large files, but checking his email and loading graphically oriented webpages only took a few seconds. It's definitely a big step forward in the world of wireless data.

Cingular Reps

Ok any Cingular reps reading this, I would like your input on the situation that happened to me yesterday in a Cingular corporate store.

I went in because I wanted to port a number from an account in my name with another carrier, to an account with Cingular that is not in my name. Basically I was trying to do an add a line to an existing family plan, and it happened to be a port in.

My question is this: Is getting an activation with a higher MRC so much more valuable than an add a sub in terms of commission that it justifies blatant lying to a customer?

When I explained to the girl working there what I wanted to do, she informed me that since I was trying to port with different names, that it was not possible to bring my number di...

Razr? V557? SE 520?

I'm getting close to the upgrade timing for my phone and I'd like to know what some of you recommend...I currently have the V551 which for the most part has been a good phone, except the reception kinda sucks and the bluetooth has a hard time staying connected to the headset (both of which seem to be a common problem with this phone). So...

Has anything else been updated on the V557 other than the ticker? If the reception and bluetooth are better then I'm sold.

Or the Razr? I know a few people who have this phone and love it. OR hold out for the Razr V3i?

OR the SE 520? I checked it out in a store and it seemed pretty easy to get around, but how is the reception and bluetooth? The big thing I didn't like about this one is that the s...

HOW can they turn this MESS AROUND

I just read the January issue of Consumer reports it ranked cingular as dead toilet bowl last. They just came straight out and said Cingular has wide spread static problems.
That’s pathetic! What is cingular going to do about this?

Am I crazy or maybe I'm tripping, but....

I could swear I saw a Cingular branded phone/PDA/Blackberry earlier today on the website. I was too busy with calls and couldn't check it out. Now, it's gone!

rokr problems

I heard the rokr has problems ringing after the phone has been hung up and the only way to solve this is to take out the battery. Is this a common problem with the phones becaz I was going to buy one but im kinda hesitant after hearing this.
Can someone tell me bout this problem and how often they occur or if its just a few unlucky people.

Is it true Verizon Agents get compensated the same on New Acts and Upgrades?

My friend told me about it and I'm wondering if Cingular will ever start giving the same compensation for all packages.
