Cingular WILL NOT be carrying the 6102

It's offical - I just hear this from my district manager. Cingular will not be carrying the 6102 due to QA issues. There are no plans to carry this phone in the future.

I'm actually very happy to say that you're wrong! I've already seen 2 national televised commercials promoting the 6102 for cingular as a back to school phone. Also found out from a cingular employee that the phone has been pushed back to the end of October! Most of the cingular stores in my area already have posters of the phone hanging up promoting it! Stay cool and remember patience is a virtue. This phone will definitely be worth the wait!

I guess there were a lot of problems with the software that Nokia couldn't resolve in time for delivery.

We've got posters and demo phones at our store as well, but I just talked to my district manager again and he confirmed that we've put a stop order out for that phone. Take from it what you will, I guess.

I was at my Cingular store 1 hour ago. They had just received their dummy 6102 phone today. It was very nice. They expect their phones any day.

I also called Cingular customer service within the hour and they said they should be out before Oct 1 in most stores.

well Im not sure where you are located but in alabama they told me that they are getting them and they are ordered, but due to the huricane it slowed things on delivery, which it also says that on their official website about the delays on all of our phones coming in our area, but all 4 of our stores that I called said we were getting them. which I hope they are right. but who knows it has been delayed for so long now, so you could be right.

Just a reminder to not take all of the information on here as actual & factual. Read opinions/comments carefully and trust your good judgement. The best way to know something is just to wait it out....see if the phone eventually ends up in a cingular store, keep checking on it. From my personal experience, cingular reps themselves(no fault of there on, the go off of what there told) have no clue of upcoming handsets. I called cingular the other day for instance to check the status of PTT rollout...the rep did not even know what PTT was....i said "Should you know what push to talk service is" her response was, "excuse you, dont' tell me what I need to know" and she hung up on me. This is one of the cusomer service reps that just has a jo...
