WTF IS WRONG WITH CINGULAR .... ATTWS DID ALL THE WORK ALREADY

On cnet.com there a video for the Motorolla A840 for ATTWS. It is a GSM and WCDMA phone. Interesting .... Kent German goes on to say that ATTWS has UTMS set up and running in a few cities.

Why hasn't Cingular improved on this?

And to me it seems like ATTWS did most of the GSM work and Cingular is just riding their wave!

Cingular isn't riding any wave. AT&T couldn't make a profit and they spent billions setting up their GSM network. Cingular came in with money and bought them up. Oh well.

it was a bad merger.

Hate to be the odd man out but I always looked at Cingy & ATT merging or buying each other as a natural progression. Back in the old day they all ran neck and neck and as far as alignment I thought AT&T and Bellsouth Mobility would've been the ones to merge instead of BS & SBC... Heck, all three of those companies ran the same way (crappy). The funny thing is the way Cingular attacked the younger crowd when they first came out... That did in the possibility of stealing business market share from Sprint, Nextel, and even Verizon...
