Wireless Data
Someone PLEASE explain to me...
Okay, I just ordered an unlocked Nokia 6681 for my service with Cingular. It has PTT capability, but I've been told it won't work with CIngular's PTT service in NOv.? Why not? Also, I read this somewhere: These phones are good for AT&T, T-Mobile and Cingular 1900/900/1800 MHz GSM users and NOT Cingular 850 MHz band. What does this mean?? And how do I know which user I am??? HEEELLLPPP!!

First, PTT capability and ability are indeed to different things. Generally with unlocked phones a great deal of programming will need to be done, you'll need to talk to Cingular for this. Since I don't work for them and haven't seen their PTT specs maybe someone else can chime in there.
As for...

Bravo Mark!
I don't believe the 6681 has support for the 850mhz ranges, as it's a European tri-band phone. It will still work on all three of the carriers you mentioned on the 1900 mhz frequencies, it simply is not capable of picking up the 850 mhz. It may also not have the right software to run our upcoming PTT. If there is a way to have it added to the phone, it will be hard to come by.
