Ooookay. So, customer and I are talking, and he asks me to put him on hold. People don't usually ask to be put on hold, so I'm a little curious, say okay no problem and hit the mute button. Sure enough, guy takes what sounds like the mother of all bong rips, coughs like a maniac and says something unintelligible to somebody in the room (probably something like "Eeeear!") I wait until he composes himself, unmute and we go on... Sometimes this job is just too weird for words... 🤣 😎

Since T-mobile test their new phone so well, I wonder if the reason they carry so few Nokia's in the US is the reception/internal antenna issue. The reason I say this is that I have a Samsung E105 (locked), Motorola V600 (locked) and have bought a Nokia 6230 (unlocked). External and internal antennas respectively. I have tested both in marginal areas. The Nokia just does not seem to hold a signal in the weak reception areas that I have tested and compared these 3 phones.

In an article posted by Rich Brome on the Sidekick 2 issue, the article also included info about T-Mobile carrying the new HP 6500.

first off the expansion slot is for sony memory stick duo's right? what is the max capacity in the SE, from what i see sony sells them up to 1 GB, will the S710A accept that?

Also what is the headphone jack on the S710A? is it one that i can plug any standard headphones in?

overall hows the quality when listening to mp3's...is it decent? and also how loud is it through headphones comapared to a real mp3 player or a cd player?

Can I buy a prepaid tmobile phone and then just use the phone on my regular monthly tmobile billed plan?

Which phone V300 or V600

Is there anyway to use this for T-mobile

release date anyone? is it coming to the US?
my contract is up end of april and this looks like the phone i want to get...any other phones coming out in comparison to this, b4 may?

Is there a way I can either unlock a motorola v300 or does anyone know the subsidy password for it? I have a cingular customer who, when ever she puts the cingular sim card in, it ask for the subsidy password. Can some one help me here?

Ok here's my deal. I'm a Cingular Customer and have been for over 6 months. I love my Cingular Service, Plan, Phone, Etc. However, I really like the Sidekick and the Sidekick Plan since I text message like crazy and IM like crazy too. If I were to get a Sidekick, I still keep my Cingular Phone, Plan, and Service but I get it for Text Messaging, E-Mail, AIM, and Internet use. I use a Ogo from Cingular for all my Text Messaging, Instant Messaging, and E-Mail use but no Internet. So I'm asking how good is the Internet access and speed? Can you go on any website? Can you go on myspace? Is the plan better than the $17.99 Ogo Plan? Does your AIM Buddylist lets you have your full list?

Does anyone know how reliable the information is at www.mobiledia.com. I read a few things on that site that seem to be a little suspect. For instance, they have the new V635 listed a 1st Quarter release and the carrier as T-Mo. That sounded real suspect to me.

I was reading bout the Sony Ericcson T610(discontinued). It was a gsm 900 phone. How did they work this phone on a 800 network. 😕

Just took a call from a customer who activated two days ago at an indirect dealer. They gave her a phone that didn't work, then reluctantly exchanged it for a USED Samsung R225 that was set up in Spanish and she couldn't read it to change the language back. They told her she didn't qualify for any other phone because she's SmartAccess. I suggested she use a few minutes of her 14 day trial period to shove the phone back up where the sun don't shine on the person who fed her this line of bologna, she was hesitant to do so because they'd locked her into a two year contract--if she cancels she pays them some horrendous fee. I gave her the lowdown, the list of free phones available from our web site and the locations of her closest corporate ...

Anyone have an ideas on whether the external 'stub' antenna gets better reception that an internal one on the T-Mobile network. With advances in technology, does an internal antenna hold a signal just as well?

Now that I've finally seen some of the T-Mobile TV commericals, I've got to say that I'm pretty disapppointed.

I just saw the "auctioneer" fast-talking commercial last night and while I thought it was well written and everything, I don't understand why T-Mobile is advertising their unlimited "family talk" like it's something brand new and unique to them. Every carrier has that, and has for some time now! In addition, I don't remember that they mentioned you could call anyone on T-Mobile, not just people on your plan. (Maybe they did and I just don't remember it.)

I suppose most people are under the impression they have to add the MTM to their family plans like they do on individual lines and they're trying to address that issue. Go...

If you are one, would you mind dropping me a private message real quick. I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

I am looking to buy a new phone and am contemplating on which phone to buy. I am stuck between the Motorola A630 and the Nokia 6600. I know that they are two different phones but I was wondering if some people could give me some feedback on the over all quality of these and which one would be better. Any feedback would be great.

any know were i can get the unlock code for the A630?

My experience with using unlocked phones (usually they come from Europe when ordered here in the US) - is that they seem to have a harder time keeping the signal and seem to loose a weak signal a lot quicker? Is this just my imagination or is there something that T-Mobile does to its branded phones that will make them inherently more stable? (I'm using an unlocked Nokia 6230 at the moment)
