The V400 is in the warehouse! I'll have them in stock by Thursday of this week, go to your nearest Cingular and tell them to order them if you want one.

I started having problems making calls with my Sony Ericsson T68i today and went to the Cingular store to either get it fixed or replaced. The phone was out of warrentee and i was going to do an insurance claim and they told me that the only phones that they could replace it with were two discontinued phones the T68i and the T306 or the Motorola V60gi. They only had the V60i in stock and said it was either that or a refurb T68m! So i told them that that is totally unacceptable to offer me 2 phones that they don't even sell any more or a totally out classed phone.

Anyone signed up for the sales promo from Motorola to win a V400? I've already won one and I'm working on a second. It's going to be sweet!

cingular is now telling me the v400 will not be out until the 2nd week in january and they told me they will not be carrying the v600 at all!

I guess I'm stuck with the 400, sure hope it has all the features the 600 has except bluetooth.

I really need to transfer photos from my pc to the phone and i dont think the 400 is usb.

😡 what i cannot understand is why people would stay w/ a compant period if they do not liike the service .i have friends who work for SPRINT,CINGULAR ,AWS and Verizon.threy speak to so many people who ,"you guys sick " or " i hope you go out of business" really what do these people think. i mean cancel then.yippe your gone maybe if customers would learn to read and add or PAY ATTENTION to whats being said they may not end up w/ huge bills then call customre care to whine and cry.boo hoo.its the customres fault 70 -80 % of the time .suck it up.stop complaining.people in this country as far a consumers have gotten this" customres always right" in their head so much that the mistakes they make are irreleveant they want somethinfore nothing or...

Has anyone heard anything about Siemens releasing an A56i model?

All I know is that a display model for it exists, that it's not on my price lists, and that I've heard of no specs on it.

I just wanted to know if anyone out there is currently using this phone and if you're currently experiencing reception problems while indoors and if you reside in the Chicago area.Your responses will be highly appreciated. 🤣 😁

as of yesterday cingular notified me, a cing dealer, that due to technogy problems with LG phone using Nortell technologies are no longer to be sold to customers, they wouldnt elaborate on the technical glitches of the problem. Anyone hear of this?

have a few questions on these phones

1) can either of these phones be used for uploading jpeg photos from from my
computer to the cell phone to display the photos and the cell phone screen.
I'm not refering to pictures taken with the phone camera, I mean to take
jpeg pictures off my pc hard drive and storing them on the cell phone for
viewing. It's my understanding that both phones have a 5mb hard drive.

2) if this can be done, how would you do it with the v400 as it is not USB
only the v600 is

3) what is pc sync- I dont believe the v400 has that feature

4) what is sync ml?

I really want the v600, but my current phone has had it, the screen doesnt
even display any longer and i need a phone now, I currently have cingular

😳 Just found out that Cingular will offer the V400 ( plastic & no Bluetooth)in Dec and the 600 in Feb (metal & BT)

Hi All!
I am a current Verizon user in the S.F.-Bay area, and have excellent service with them for 4 years now. But I have been intrigued for a long time with GSM service and the phones connected with it. I need peoples input and opinions here. Is GSM better than CDMA and why? I heard the voice quality is better, but is it by much? A year or two ago, I heard GSM was terrible here(as far as signal strength, dropped calls, etc)...has it improved? From what I've seen on the maps and from what co-workers and friends say, it is yes. Now if I decide to go GSM's way, I've decided to go with either AT&T or Cingular, because they have the upcoming 850 frequency besides the already existing 1900. T-Mobile only has 1900 from what I've seen.
So betwe...

I'm really thinking about getting one from e-Bay and price is great. Network characteristics are the question and if I will have any problems with "buy my products only" from Cingular? Please guys, help me!

Check this out...the Cingular Nation GSM map is growing check out all the future coverage coming by year's end!

in the wash/balt area all carries have to be ready nov 24th cingular will let you take your number over regadless of if your account is current, suspended, or still under contract (you will pay early termination fee if under contract) even prepaid and home numbers can carry over. theres not much detail on eligiblity, just that the FCC has told all carriers to make the trans smooth as possible. the downside it will take some time for the activation to complete up to 3hrs for (wireless port) and a day for (landline port). it will be crazy the first week most likely being that were going into black friday. but well see what happens

We have a lot of carriers out there with a lot of licenses. So how do they keep it all sorted out? What's the ins and outs of this swath stuff?

In an interesting article in rcrnews.com Nextel tried to claim, among other things, that Cingular was not in compliance in Maryland over the Public Safety issues. I thought GSM and iDEM were two different balls of wax. So what is the real story of spectrum?

Does anyone have an opinion of Cingular vs Verizon or ATT in Southern California? Of late my ATT TDMA service seems to be deteriorating, with no real help or explanation from ATT, although their customer service people try to be helpful.

Cingular seems to have good plans and phones, but I am concerned about call quality, the size of the network and customer service.

Any input is welcome. Thanks.

Has anyone out there accomplished this???
I know that CR has TDMA in the frequencies used by Cingular and that some of the rentamo'vil (cell phone rental companies) there use Motorola phones equiv. to my Mot. V60 Ti.
I expect that the coverage will be sub-par. Having the Mobile Phone industry completely monopolized by the nationalized electric company does not bode well for technological innovation ---- However... I just want to know that in a pinch I can use my Cingular phone to call within the country or back to the U.S., even if it does cost muchos dolares cada minuto to talk!

I have been through 2 different (so-called) CSRs at Cingulars cust. support line and just now I left a local Cingular office where I annoyed a rep. there who ...

Will Cingular ever have service in Minnesota?

Thanks!

where the only carrier that uses it, right now in the washington/baltimore area cingular only has two triband phones the 6200 and t616 and accouding to brochures well have international roaming by nov 3rd, but if you put a 900/1800 unlocked phone on or system you going to have problems with voice mail, and things like that. they choose the easy way out i think, it limits you to certain phone if you want all of your features. we live in ebay times i want my freedom to get a hot phone no-one has.


they need to merge with somebody.
