Yup, if im not mistaken Cingular moved over to ATTWS's 850 band and sold their 1900 band to TMo. Don't they have quad band versions of the v3x though.

NO, theres not a quadband version of this phone. Another reason I didnt think there would be a problem with reception is because my friend bought a sk65 off of ebay and it does not have a 850mhz band and he gets reception everywhere in southern California.(He lives a mile away from me and is also on the cingy network.)

Well that should answer your question. I could have sworn I saw someone in this forum post that Cingular uses 850 in Cali now and sold the 1900 to TMo. When I lived out in SoCal (a couple of years ago), they used 1900 band.

Im still unsure though because I dont want roaming charges while im in my home calling area.

You wont get roaming charges in your area. When Cingular split off the 1900 network to T-Mobile, they have an agreement to allow Cingular customers usage until sometime in 2008. So for now it will work without 850...
