Rumor Mill

True, but only if they are given the code needed to unlock the phone to allow another carriers sim card to operate, and attws cannot provide the lock code to a cingular or t-mobile phone, only thier own.. And let me ask this, WHY would attws activate a phone from another carrier? They would loose money by not having the customer purchase one from them.

And being compatible is a BIG thing.. if any from attws, cingular, or T-mobile was coming to either Sprint or Verizon they would have to get a new phone. and the vice versa
