I seem to remember only candybar phones.
Capn - 29 May 2005 00:58 GMT they do flips, but i believe the one with bluetooth coming out is for cdma sprint or verizon.

DeeBat - 29 May 2005 01:21 GMT I just checked Nokia's website, and they do now have a GSM flip phone model 6170 that seems to support Cingular's frequencies, but they don't show it being available for Cingular. Link to phone below:

Nor the 6230i. which is the bar phone I'm waiting for, to upgrade.

There are 3 US carriers that have the Nokia 6170 available, but these are all regional carriers for the central and some western states. These carriers are: Centennial Wireless, Edge Wireless, and i wireless.

Looks like Nokia might give the Razr some competition. Huh?

DeeBat - 30 May 2005 17:42 GMT I looked on phonescoop.com, and it appears that some Nokia 6170 users are already using the Nokia 6170 with Cingular service (Check out reader reviews, and forums for the 6170 on phonescoop.com). They are buying the phones on e-bay. I can't verify this but it certainly seems that it should work - that is if you can get Cingular to activate the phone.

If it's unlocked, and you have a working Cingular sim, Cingular does not have to activate it.

I've seen others feud with you, but stayed far away--because I had no idea what it was all about.
But if this is how you approach total strangers, I can understand it better.

You should know I never use bad language. Bad language is the last refuge for folks that cant prove their argument any other way.
Check where I am posting from. I am no longer on Earthlink. Arends still is.

Arends works for boeing, I'm sure they could *CARE LESS* about what he does on the internet on his own time. Look at his time stamps.
God, you're just obsessed with him aren't you. what? in love philly?

I'm curious about the N91. I just saw a photo in a trade magazine.
Danska - 29 May 2005 04:21 GMT > any ideas Nokia does have some flip phones. I personally have owned the nokia 6170 flip phone. It's a sweet phone. There are two versions. The nokia 6170 and 6170b. Most of the phones on ebay are the 6170 (NOT B). Main difference being the 6170 (NOT B) is not 850mhz while the 6170b is.
I had the non-b. Worked very well, but i don't ever roam on 850mhz. (Nor do i even have cingular/att). T-mobile is rumored to start using a nokia flip but it's not as nice as the 6170. Personally i think it's really ugly.
