hmm...

Got a new price sheet in today, I don't work for a coporate Cingular store so don't flame me if this isn't true everywhere....but the a630 is now listed as 'removed from lineup.' Now I actually saw a cingular branded a630 something like six months ago. . . so I don't know how accurate this info is. Anyone else in the georgia market have this same information?

Address book (multiple numbers per name)

Anyone know how to do this. I can't believe that you can only have 1 number per name.

Thanks!

By the way ...I switched from the Nokia 6600 because it was too big, and I didn't need all the extras, plus to get AIM, it would have required downloads, etc...not for me.

Only real knock on the phone so far is that the volume could go a little higher...also, when I set up bluetooth, the ringer is never what i originally set it too.

New Cingular info...

For what it is worth, I was in a Cingular store over the weekend and was told "Cingular will be releasing a bunch of phones between now and Feb 8th" He sounded confident by saying the A630, Treo and the SE S 710 are included in those that are coming before the 8th, with the new LG to follow right after those. He also said the A630 was just apporved by Cingular(no idea what that means) The manager said something about Cingular buying At T and buying the whole American Idol thing. He claims the phones should be out prior to the text voting starts.

He seemed like he was up to date on what was happening but who knows

Does anyone else have a slightly loose keyboard pad?

The external keypad on my phone jiggles slightly if you sort of move it along the plane of the phone.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Loose Keypad?

Hello folks ...

I am growing to like my a630, but want to know if I got a poorly built one.

Does anyone find that there is a lot of "wiggle" in the keypad? When i lay my finger on it and apply slight pressure, I can wiggle the keypad a few millimeters left and right.

This is not a functional problem, but it just feels cheap. And it's not a cheap (cost) phone.

Maybe this can be fixed if I open the faceplate?

thanks,

Off the price sheets...

I talked to my local cingular corporate and he had the a630 on a price sheet a month or so back. His latest price sheet doesn't have it though the s710a is on it saying price effective 2/13.

I'm just wondering if this means we will be waiting even longer or what. All I can say is the guy at the corporate store wasn't encouraged by it being removed from the price sheet.

I'm not either. đŸ˜ĸ

Sick of waiting, Ordered Tmobile

Hello All,

Been Lurking for a while, great forum.
I have been interested in getting this phone for while, and I certainly don't have the patience(as some of you have 🙂 )
My 2 year contract with att just expired a couple of days ago. I was on an unlimited 24/7 plan $99.00 month . I liked the plan, but no roaming included ☚ī¸ That is a big drawback.
I just purchased the A630 from amazon, with the $45.99 mnth 1,000 minute plan( now I have to count minutes ☚ī¸, t-zones, and text messaging.
I'm in NYC, i've heard that tmobile service is comparable to att/cingular?
One thing that bothers me is having to get a new number, but what's the big deal, not to hard to let ppl know your new number. One thing I wanted that tmobile doesn't have...

Tried and True

I got so tired of waiting for the A630 I went and purchased an outdated Nokia 3300. For POP3 email functionality and basic phone features it is awesome! Comes with 64mb internal memory and will take a larger MMC up to 1GB! A full Qwerty keypad is excellent as well. There are so many smart phones being released this year that the lack of features and no price tag (100 w/100 mail in rebate) makes this stop gap 6 month phone well worth it. Sure it doesn't have bluetooth but neither does my wife!🙂 Hopefully by the time I'm rdy to replace when all the new models have been released I'll be able to ahead and get the Communicator 9500 anyhow. Cingular, you dropped the ball on the A630 and passed up alot of revenue!!! đŸ˜ŗ

How to weasel an A630 out of Tmobile

OK, first I should premise all of this on my account history with TMobile:
1. I've been a customer for 6 years
2. I haven't had a contract in 4 years
3. I haven't ever had the phone shut down for non-payment.

Anyway, I've been waiting since this fall for Cingular to get this phone so I could jump on the Amazon "port your # and we'll give you the phone free" deals that they always have. I finally got tired of Lucy pulling the ball out from my swinging leg so I decided to call TMobile and see what they'd do.

I talked to the first CSR and was offered $299 plus a one-year contract (I hate contracts). Hell of a deal. I got her to send me to retention and there I played the "been off contract forever" card and also the "have you see...

I feel your pain...

I too am playing the waiting game, though not for an a630. I'm waiting for the release of the Sony Ericsson S710a. You guys think there's been a lot of posts in this forum? Hop over to the S710a forum - well over 40 pages for a phone that hasn't even been released yet.

I work for Cingular & have confirmed through my contacts that the S710a is to be released very soon, but I haven't heard anything about the a630 yet. I know that it IS showing up on my recent price lists, but it also says not yet available for order. In my experience with this company, seeing how things are now, I honestly wouldn't expect anything for at least a month from now if I were any of you guys.

Anytime now

It seems there may be a marketing strategy on Cingular's part to launch the a630. Heard there will be changes in the text/media meassanging plans this coming week. Is it possible the a630 will be launched with the new messaging plans? (just an obervation guess) Anybody have any info? 😕
