Isn't this strangeee !!! international texts only to certain contries

i tried to text message internationally, i was able to send and receive to certain countries whereas i wasnt able to send or receive from other countries, the fact is that even the countries i wasn't able to send/receive have got GSM 850 900 and 1800, can anyone tell me why this is happening and is Cingular in the process of updating its technology so as to allow text messages to all over the world,

Too all the agents: Competitors Number!!!

It might be because I am living in ass backwards Kentucky, but do you all have customers calling you to find out the numbers to your competitors. I think its rude for a customer to call and ask you for your competitors number!!! What do you all think? I mean I would not call Best Buy to get Radioshacks number or vise versa. Stupid damn red necks...lol...

Nokia 6200 (from Cingular) has some settings blocked out

the AT&T version of this phone, has "System Selection" a option to manuly search for service, or to place it on automatic..

anyway the cingular version does not have it, and I just spoke to NOKIA and was told that CINGULAR BLOCKED OUT THOSE SETTINGS

so does anybody know of a way to change that, and to be able to pick other carriers,

so far where I am, even in the OFFICIAL dead spots (cingular acknowledged it themselves) since its in and around a city, where cingular does have coverage, I am picking up 0-1 bar of service, and still does not search for another carrier (AT&T GSM has full service there)

from the way NOKIA put it, ("CINGULAR BLOCKED OUT THOSE SETTINGS OF SYSTEM SELECTION...") sounds like, this plan of free roaming ...

Network Question

I was wondering, how extensive is Cingular's use of the 850 band? Like, if I were to purchase through one of zillions of exporting sites a European phone (900 band), would I be able to use it? I realize that there is still the 1800 and 1900 bands, I guess my question is how extensive is the use of just the 850 band?

Switching phones

I have a nokia 8260. One of my co-workers is selling a Nokia 3100 unlocked (what does that mean?). Can I use this phone in Alabama?? Does my phone have a Sim card or is it too old? I called customer service but she said she didn't know, that I should buy the phone and try it. But I don't want to spend the money if it won't work.

Thanks!

Possible new customer needs phone help

I am currently with Nextel and am almost definate I am switching at the first of May to Cingular. I just don't know what phone to get. I really like the Nokia 3300 and 3600. I would like to have bluetooth but I know it is not offered on the 3300. I would love to have bluetooth but I am not sure how well bluetooth really is. AIM would almost have to be a must on the phone, I really like that service. I guess what I need to know what phone should I get. THe 2 i named above are 2 that I really like.

Wireless internet for a laptop? Does cingular offer anything? If so how does it work and whats the price?

Samsung S307 feature question

Hi All-

a few months ago I got the s307. i really love it, but i cannot figure out one thing. In my "messages" section, there is a "outbox", i assume this is for sent messages only my sent messages do not appear there. is this just me or is it not supposed to work?! could it be the service?

TIA for answers!

Though, it doesn't seem to be a joke, AT&T has finally released the Motorola v600! maybe cingular will be getting it soon

Prepaid GSM

I live in South Jersey and I noticed that Cingular's one prepaid phone (Nokia 3560) is TDMA.
Does anyone know if Cingular will offer prepaid GSM phones in this area in the future?
Also - will Cingular ever offer Prepaid SIM cards?
