Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Cingular / September 2003Cingular GSM - When in DFW?
Does anyone now when Cingular is going to roll out their GSM network full throttle in the Dallas area? I've heard that it's October have seen nothing from Cingular to confirm this. Thanks for the help. I talked to a cingular rep yesterday and she said late october early november is what she has heard. They are already GSM in OKC and Houston and Austin. You can put in an OKC or Houston Zip code and get an idea of whats to be expected. The GSM national plan looks to have good coverage with lots of included roaming. A better value than AT&T's GSM offering, assuming it works well.  SignatureDan W.

But it falls far short of the current Preferred Nation plan. Why would anyone give up Preferred Nation for Nation GSM (or give up Statewide Plus for SuperHome for that matter)??? It's not one step but several steps backwards in terms of coverage. A lot of the transitioned markets now have a Cingular Nation Plan for GAIT phones-the old TDMA Nation Plan. The plan I have had for 4 years 500/3500 $49.99. Now 500/5000 with rollover $55.00.
