Re: People!
I like when Rush Limbaugh comes to phonescoop to let his thoughts be known. :)
Re: Why would anyone want the $99 2yr contract plan now?
It's nationwide.
Re: Why would anyone want the $99 2yr contract plan now?
Sprint has a very fast data network and PDAs. Boost does not.
Re: Napster to go or Rhapsody music?
I've used Rhapsody and Yahoo to go, and it works just fine. I don't use Napster, though, so I can't help you there.
Re: Napster to go or Rhapsody music?
Yes it does. :)
Re: itunes or rhapsody?
It works with Rhapsody, not itunes. It also works with the "to go" service. :-)...
Re: Can you help me understand this please
RIM, the manufacturer of the Pearl, didn't make the Pearl 3G capable, therefore it shouldn't concern you that T-Mobile is going to offer 3G service in the future.
In fact, no phones in T-Mobile lineup have the capability of doing 3G. Yet. Once the service gets up and running, you'll see manufacturers making 3G phones for T-Mobile.
If you think you need 3G service in the future, then you may need to purchase another phone. But if you ...
Re: Can you help me understand this please
As far as the 1700 Mhz, no other carrier uses this frequency. Current carriers use 850/1900/2100 Mhz, hence, current 3G phones only use 850/1900/2100 Mhz, so they won't be compatible with 1700 Mhz when T-Mobile rolls this out.
As far as UMA cellular, that is using your cell phone to make calls while within a wi-fi range. For instance, if you are at home and your phone doesn't get any cellular service there, your phone will switch to ...
Re: Nokia vs. Pantech
Maybe Verizon hasn't approved those specific models (yet) for whatever reason. Verizon is renowned for being picky, and who knows why certain models get approved and others don't. If it was up to Nokia on what phones Verizon would carry, they'd probably put their whole CDMA lineup in. :wink:
My guess would be the same as yours, the whole Verizon UI issue. Since Nokia is pulling out of the manufacturing of CDMA handsets, it's probably more ...
Re: Has.....
Nokia is covering a variety of customers. This particular phone is in the 'good' category- basically for phone users who don't need the advanced features (EVDO/VCAST capability), and want a nice, sleek design. The 'better' category is the 6305, which has the extra features for the mid-range user (and is being sold at company owned locations in Circuit City). The 'best' category, for those customers that use a lot of features, will hopefully be out in ...
Re: Whisky Tango Foxtrot, over
I'm thinking that the women who wish to purchase these phones are probably into products like Louis Vuitton. You know, the purses that are warm amber or coffee brown? In case you don't know Louis Vuitton's product line, check out the following:

Do they look familiar?
Re: Big Deal!!
Nokia is a manufacturer, not a GSM service. They've already stated previously that they are going to concentrate a lot on CDMA products this year (and I'm sure next year). Maybe there'll be a series 60 CDMA phone that handles N-Gage games next year? You never know.
Re: Why?
Actually, the QD can handle a 1GB MMC card (some say 2GB)- what this article really has to say is that they are going after the mobile gaming arena, as in JAVA and Symbian, which other mobile phones are capable of doing (but not the PSP and DS), plus play N-Gage games. That means that you can play N-Gage games on, say, a version of the N90. You know, the one with a 4GB hard drive, 2 ...
Re: no camera??
Nokia is also coming out with the 6155, which looks like the 3155, but with the megapixel camera, flash, and a navigation system. Nokia is probably making sure all the bases are covered since some businesses do not allow cameras in the workplace.
Re: Did I win the lottery? Because those phones are expensive.
Last I checked, every manufacturer has a wide array of phones to entice every customer- including the high end, expensive phones, to the low end, entry level phones. If you can't afford this phone, maybe you should be looking at the 6230 or the 6620.
Metro PCS
I talked to the Metro PCS rep today- the 2115 is coming to a Metro PCS store near you. :)
