My fellow friends, I believe I have made the decision....

Yesterday, I added WorldConnect to my phone, b/c I'll be traveling out of the country within a few days....which will be at a wopping rate of $4.99 per minute for data and talkin(ouch! :cry🙂, so I won't be doing that much talking. However, I realized that the K700 came in handy, b/c where I'm going is 900/1800....
Now, the whole reason to get a S710 was primarily for 850 band when I travel South, but I had planned to use my K700 for everday use.
That would be a waste of a S710(the phone is way to cool), to only use when I travel South...so, I have to make some sacrifices.
I will trade in my K700, for the S700, b/c I need the 900 band, then I will have something close to S710, minus EDGE ☹️ ...and I will have to figure out what to get for...

I personally think your plan is a good one. It makes perfect sense. Sure, there's somethings you have to sacrifice, but in the end it may just be better that way.

Whichever way you happen to go, good luck.

Aww....you're not getting a S710! ☹️ But at least you can get the phone's cousin NOW and not have to wait. and wait. and wait for it to be released.

I'll leave the recommendations up to everyone else who knows the cingular lineup better than I.

Yeah, I just feel like the S710 is to nice of a phone just to use for 850 band (Southern travel) use....although I could do it the other way around...use the 850 band...and just carry 900 band phone when I go overseas???

Yeah, that's true. Just get something simple for overseas and go all out over here with the S710a.

I'll have to sacrifice no radio...sometimes it's nice to be able to cut on the radio when you're waiting somewhere and the people around you are annoying as hell.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's always good to be unique, I think so at least. I like having variety and setting myself apart from the majority of society.

It's one of the reasons I like my car, around Chicago I rarely see ones like it.

I can dig..that's why I kind of want the S700 instead...u know everyone and there mama is gonna be trying to get that S710...can u blame them, though?
Let's see, I'll be sacrificing EDGE, but the S700's GPRS is class 10, which is the best class of GPRS. Anything else?

You'll be losing the blackness of the S710 and exchanging it for Silverness. Past that, I can't see any difference.

Lose EDGE, gain Radio

Lose 850, gain 900

Lose Black color, gain Silver color

I actually like Silver better than black.
Maybe the guys like the black better...I love the color of the K700, it's so slick looking.

Hero, how does your friend like her S700?

She's absolutely in love with it. She was never the type to buy cool gadgets and such, but she saw me looking at it once on here and something hit her, she fell in love with it, wanted it, got it, and she's very very happy and pleased with it.

I have a 2004 Acura RSX Type S. I know it's nothing special, but around my neighborhood and the majority of Chicago, I don't really see them.
