Hi guys.
Yesterday I ordered a new phone from Cingular so that I could get a
new phone as well as get on the nation wide plan.
Can anyone give me their thoughts / experiences with this phone?
Also what standards does this particular phone support?
Does the g in the model name mean I'll have a gsm enabled phone? Is
this a phone I can plug in to my laptop with a serial or usb
connection and surf the Internet as if I were using a modem?
I know this method wouldn't be fast, I'd probably only get around a
14.4 connection, but it will work for e-mail if I needed it too.

Thanks,
Tommy

It probably sucks just like the one t-mobile had and at&t had it and they
pulled it too.

My advice: Don't get it.

I have the C331t, and it has served me very well. However, I had the
TDMA version. Voice quality was excellent, and service was phenomenal.
However, with the C331g, you have a built-in battery. So if the
battery won't hold a charge, the entire phone is a total loss. What is
your definition of "Nationwide". If coverage is important, GSM is not
for you, yet. I also have a Sony Ericsson T62u, and I have had great
luck with it. TDMA/AMPS signal is not as strong as the Motorola C331t,
but overall it works very well, with absolutely no complaints.

How important is national coverage to you?
