No and no

Knowing USCC, they will test the 7100g out for its customers

i dont think a pda for us cellular would be worth it to us cellular or the maker. not enough buyers, it would attract a few but not enough to make the cost worth it, plus the 7100 is a cingular phone... but im sure that model # was an honest mistake.

there are 3 different models of the 7100. and from what I have heard, it will be a version of the 7100, and not a palm type device.

Don't hold your breath people, I have been on uscc for a year about a PDA phone here in West Virginia.
They keep talking but mostly out their *ss.
They lost me as a customer and are losing more and more
Love the Sprint Treo 650

By the time uscc gets a pda the will be oudated

way to go uscc

if you live in west virgina and know how to use a palm you dont belong there, they dont need no readers.

Alejandro --

C'mon man. "They don't need no readers."?? How 'bout any readers? Sorry to bust your hump, but if you're going to take the stereotypical, backhanded swipe at my state and its good people, the least you could do is to sound grammatically correct about it. And for the love of all that is holy, PLEASE spell the name of the dam# state correctly! And while I'm at it, don't forget that you need an apostrophe in your contractions as well. 😉

Yeah, mikemedic seems upset with USCC but I'm rather in his camp on this one. USCC's PDA phone offerings are...

Thanks for the advice Alejandro.
I am use to the dig at my state.
You really need to go back to English class .
I don't recall this being a site to make cracks at West Virginia but it shows your level .

I was frustrated with USCC cause they kept giving me the run around and they are correct when saying uscc is the strongest cdma carrier in the state. I had 4 accounts with uscc and had to drop one as I needed a PDA phone.

By the way Sprint offers free roaming on other cdma networks and I have used uscc towers on my Sprint account with no extra charge.

The same goes for USC, there have been several times when we pick up sprint towers at no charge. The messed up avox 8500's can pick up a sprint tower when they malfunction and read no service constantly.

Every mispelling and gramatical error was to represent your great state, but don't feel bad, i'm in it. The last thing we need is you foreigners bringing your book learnin along.

Sounds like an upset customer, or former customer. Keep your sprint phone! I had US Cellular before I switched to sprint and it was so bad I had to go back to US Cellular. Sprint just doesn't work for everyone. Just as US Cellular doesn't work for everyone. Sorry to hear USCC didn't work for you. Why so bitter...
(continues)

I am not bitter just frustrated.
I still have 3 uscc accounts, daughters and wife love uscc. I ahve one in college in a small town and uscc is great there. My wife travels doing MRI and uscc is the only cell company that works for her travels.

I am just mad about the fact that every other cell company has a pda phone except uscc.

Wait I believe they have the outdated "boat anchor"
Kyocera still right?

The bad part is that this phone in Palm based also so why doesn't uscc pick up the Treo?

For a company sorely lacking in its PDA phone offerings, I'm surprised USCC would opt for the Blackberry over a Palm and/or PocketPC device.

I've never used a BB, but folks who own one generally acknowledge that it's great for e-mail (especially "push" e-mail using the BB Enterprise Server software) but somewhat lacking in other PDA smartphone features. Palm OS phones on the other hand do a more than adequate job with e-mail, have additional capabilities (i.e. camera, GPS, etc.) and offer thousands of third-party software apps.

I certainly could see introducing BOTH a Blackberry and Palm OS/Pocket PC device (especially when your current offerings are so limited), but making the BB your "flagship" PDA phone to the exclusion of a Palm OS...
