VerizonVsCingularVs Tmobile

All I need an unbiased opinion!!!!
I have Verizon now And I am happy with there coverage area,
What I am frustrated with is the quality of the treo 650, It "SUCKS" ๐Ÿ˜ˆ
I am on my 3rd unit same problems :resetting, freezes, speaker buzz's, and loses the bluetooth connection. Verizon will not admit that there is a problem with the 650's but yet you can read on this website all the issues that everybody has with the device. Hell Palm is being sued in Calif over the same issues.
It come down to this, I have a 400.00 doorstop, Verizon will not give me my money back, and if I WANT A NEW PHONE, I have to pay full retail!!! I can leave verizon and pay them there 175. no big deal my monthly bill is over 225.
I can change providers...

True Cingular Coverage map?

Found this today:http://onlinestorez.cingular.com/cell-p hone-service/maps/pop_coveragemap.jsp?zip=044 01&mapt=dataMap
Which is a Cingular's data map.GPRS and EDGE. I think that 's as close as it gets to their "real" coverage map.

Nokia 3220 and MMS

Hello,

I recently upgraded to a Nokia 3220. I've tried taking some pictures and sending them via mms.. but they just sit in the outbox and never get sent. T-Zones doesn't work, either. "GPRS Connection not avail..".

Any ideas? Thanks!

Tmobile Prepaid voicemail question

I am considering switching from Virgin Mobile to Tmobile Prepaid. One interesting thing I noticed in Tmobile's prepaid terms & conditions: It says something like if the phone is on and rings with the call but is not answered, and then the call goes to voicemail, time will still be charged for that incoming call.

Is this true? I've had other prepaid services and whether the phone is on or off, any call that kicks to voicemail doesn't cost me airtime.
(Of course I realize it costs me airtime to then call and the check the received message.)

But this is a big point because I get many unanswered calls to voicemail and I don't want to be charged for these.

Thanks.

t-mobile now has more coverage!!!!

If you compare their old brochure with the new one they just came out with for the new promos the coverage area looks quite a bit larger through-out the United States! Some areas that used to be roaming are now digital areas!! Looks like they've finally started to really make their network bigger and better

Hey, everybody, thanks!

I've been away for a week, and I know you're all glad. But a big Thanks to all of you that stuck up for your company (Lefteye2000-something) to no end, and kept me chuckling in response to my bullying.

Read my new post/letter to my wonderful corporate super-stars first, before going any further:

SWITCHING TO TMOBILE....PHONE CHOICE~

I currently have a verizon family plan with a treo 650 and lg 8100. My treo has text problems up the anus and i call at least once a day b/c it's not working and they refuse to send me another phone so i am dumping their asses faster than a fat kid eating a donut. My question is what phones do they offer that are similar to the ones i currently have? The closest i could get features wise was the motorola v360 for the lg 8100 and a blackberry for my treo. Any suggestions as to if i should try to wait till some of their newer models come out or just bite the bullet and get what i can now

Rate Plan UPDATE and CHANGES

T-Mobile reduced rates at its $40 price point and 1,500 anytime minutes level.

The company added 500 minutes of use to its $40 price plan to provide a total of 1,500 anytime
minutes (no nights or weekends) from 1,000 minutes.

It also reduced the price of its 1500 MOU plan, including nights and weekends, to $50 from $80 or
37.5%. This plan was already at the lowest price level compared with competitors. The per minute rate is now lower than the per minute rate for Verizon's and Cingular's 2,000 anytime minute plans
($0.033/min vs. $0.05/min).

These rate reductions could put some pressure on the other wireless carriers; however, because TMobile was already the low-price leader, the service may be viewed by consumers as a low-cos...
