Damn that is a greet phone. No FM radio does suck but considering FM radio sucks where I am [nyc] and every station sounds the same it's not a huge loss.

Don't think you will see this on Cingular though as they have an exclusive deal to sell only Nokia candybar phones.

Cingular will be carrying the Moto SLVR, so i guess that exclusive must be expiring soon

they already carry the ROCKR... I suspect that no such deal ever existed... file it away with the single bullet theory.

Sorry bud... Its a GSM phone... so it will not work pm verizon's network. Your best bet is to switch to cingular or T-mobile... They are both GSM

Huh?
There is no such exclusive deal.
Motorola Rokr, Seimens s66, The Firefly, and the Sony Ericsson. None of those are flips.

Yes, I stand corrected but I had heard for a while there was a deal.

Also the SE phone [I assume you mean the w600] is a spinner not a candybar. And one of the supposed reasons the se k750 and w800 were not quad-band [as originally spec'd to be] were b/c Cingular couldn't pick them up.

There was such an exclusive deal last year w/nokia and cingular. But it has since expired. the ROKR was a music phone so it could be sold because it was a multi-funtion device and not just a phone.

Thanks for the backup Me2...

I hope both Cingular and Tmo get this phone.

No Prob Bob. I really hope cingular picks it up. But if tmo gets it too that would be awesome! As long as one of the US GSM guys pick it up Ill be a happy camper... I would toss my s710a for this phone

Well it's on the SE US products page [and not the UKs] andi t's quad-band so I suspect US gsm carriers will get.

Plus unlike the w800 which was released with the notion of being sold 'exclusively at sony sytle stores', which as of yet hasn't been part of the press release.

Cingular did have a deal to sell only Nokia candybars this past summer, but that ended awhile back. We are back to selling candybars from other vendors.
