"Best selection of handsets in the industry?"
The above statement could be found at newcingular.com when the merger process was in the beginning stages, but will we ever see truth to it? My thinking is eventually.
Other than what AT&T and Cingular offered in the way of phones before the merger, we have found just two new models after the first full week, the Motorola v551 and Razr V3.
Here we are on the week of Thanksgiving and the kickoff of holiday shopping on Friday, will we see some movement in the way of new phones becoming available?

Why is everyone so worried about what phones are comming out? Let's see you buy a big company, and see if you don't fall behind a little. For those of you who can't wait, here is another recap of what is going to come in the next couple of months:
Between now and Christmas:
Nokia 7610 - black and tan version
Samsung c207
Siemnens CT66
SE - z500 - This should have been out last month
Treo 650
Motorola a630
By the end of the first quarter (05)you will see:
Motorola MPX 220 - Yes, it is out, but Best Buy has to finish their 90 day exclusive.
Motorola V620 (or 635) - it is in the phases or rigourous testing to prevent another V600 blunder
Motorola V400p - Cingular 1st PTT phone
Ok that's 9 new phones, plus the V551, 682...
(continues)

Don't forget the s710a (another Cingular exclusive I hear)and I think it's confirmed about the v635 (not the v620). I was toying with some lame imitation of the a630 by LG. Didn't like it but it may be out by Feb. 05. It doesn't open sideways but it slides sideways. There's this black samsung flip phone that I saw yesterday but didn't get the model name (really nice looking). That one along with the Samsung p777 are confirmed for 1st Q 05. That's all I have for now.
...
btw..the mpx220 is already out to cingular agents...we've already ordered some and two of our reps are currently using them.
I'm not impressed with them, either.

Didn't you forget the s710? Hope it is still coming?

Motorola V400p - Cingular 1st PTT phone
Does this mean they will be finally putting out the PTT feature on Cingular?
...
Yes, they are. It was first concepted early this year, and has been in testing since summer. I think SimplyMarcus, and CainMarko have seen/tested these phones. I had also heard that SE's z500 was suppose to be PTT, too, but does not look like it.

The z500a will be launched before PTT is so our version will not have PTT. I've seen and used the v400p (ringers are TOO LOUD with the twin speakers). Didn't test the PTT part of it but did use the phone.
