Nokia 6682 / 6681
Purchasing from Nokia
I am trying to purchase this phone for use on T-Mobiles network directly through Nokia's site, but it only says there's a Cingular version. Is this version unlocked? Or do you think it's the actual phone you'd get with a Cingular plan.
They have it there for 350 which I don't see as being too bad.

yes, I am not a cingular customer nor ever plan to be one...that's the problem. I want the phone sans plan and it doesn't look like I can find one.

Cingular's phone IS locked. I tried a T-mobile SIM card. It didn't work.

No, the 6618 is 900/1800/1900 while the 6682 is 850/1800/1900.
The GSM freq used in the US are 850 & 1900.
My understanding is that T-mobile only runs 1900. Cingular i know runs both 850 & 1900.
.. but that said i think (mind you i don't have anyway of backing it up..) T-mobile may get in on some 850 action, b/c the 6101 does have the 850 band .. now that is just shear speculation on my part.. plus an interesting question might be if you had a phone that supported 850 & had a T-mobile sim, could you roam on a 850 network ?? i don't know the answer, but maybe someone else does..
hope that helps.
