Got that right!!!! Something half-way decent's gotta come from Cingular EVENTUALY, but they still have to launch the damn thing.

Hey Rich, any idea as to whether or not the 2mp camera is an auto-focus, from this picture, it doesn't look like it, but heck, ya never know, any idea on internal memory, that's something that hasn't been much for. . . well ever, as much as 50mb's of internal memory would be nice.

actually this is auto-focus i think
i'm not sure if this exactly same as the
z560 but the z560 does have autofocus
but it only has 30 mb memory internal
memory.... i don't know might be more b/c
this is A707 not Z560.. haha but this does
look really nice!!! best phone ever!!

Ah, I prefer silver over black, and this phones dominant color seems to be black, but 30mb's of internal memory isn't too, too bad, I just think 50mb's would've been better.

I wonder when Cingular is EVER going to further they're 3G services and start offering navigation services, like Verizon has for a thousand frinkin yrs now, though I do like this MusicID service a lot!!!

What about the size of the screen, does anyone know that??? I think a multimedia phone should have a 2.2 or even better a 2.4 inch screen.

How about a the RAZR MAXX. Specs wise, they're almost identical except that the MAXX adds flash for the external camera, and a second internal camera for video calls. Hopefully Cingular picks it up. Vodafone announce they were selling the MAXX starting in November in the UK.

No need to make a mistake in switching 🤣 perhaps there is a maxx coming to Cingular. If you look way back into August 06, you'll find Moto2006 where you can see the HSDPA V3maxx

Cingular does offer navigation services, called Telenav which is actually better and cheaper then Verizon's VZ Navigator. It's also super easy to use, very cool stuff.

I don't think it is.

The Z560 is, but the Z560 also has a bulge in the hinge to accommodate the size of the main camera module. The A707 - despite being 2 megapixel just like the Z560 - does not have that bulge. Therefore there must be some difference. It would make sense if the difference was that the A707 is not auto-focus.

Another indication that it might not be auto focus is that Cingular is launching the phone, which would mean that it's just not quite as good as any other the other phones on the other networks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any idea on the launch date at all, so we'll know when official specs will be available?

I didn't know anything about this phone until I recieved an email last week stating that it has an expected launch date of 11/7.
