Go to the AT&T website and they have a promo to get a phone with no contract.
It takes a while till they tell you its a prepay plan, at the ripoff rates
associated with prepay plans.

Below is a listing of just the first of the text messages that are in
my inbox on my brand-new Nokia 3595 cellphone through AT&T Wireless.
I've converted the date format to yyyy.mm.dd, otherwise the text
message is exactly the way I received it:

Can't they come up with a more listening able voice than that of that Southern Gal.
Also, On hold right now.. (The service America Trusts!!!)
I will be amazed if they are not "updating"

A year ago I investigated this and ATT were not willing to give out
unlock codes for their GSM phones.  
Has that changed in the last year?
This will affect my decision to stick with ATT vs. go to another GSM

Is anyone else experiencing absolutely horrible service with ATT GSM in this
market? I use a Motorola MPX200 and am constantly experiencing dropouts and
lost connections all over town.

I have a contract currently with ATT Wireless.I want to upgrade to a
bluetooth phone so i can surf the web from my pda that has bluetooth.
What is the best way for me to get it? They dont offer any true bluetooth
phones as an upgrade for me.

I am planning to get for a cellular plan (other than Sprint, which I
have and is awful) which has good service in my area.
Any comments or opinions on AT&T's coverage in Rochester, Buffalo, NY
area?

On Thursday I noticed a significant delay in receiving text messages.  A
couple of emails sent to my phone took 6 hours, and a couple took 2 hours
until I received them.  What was interesting is that I sent a text message
to my phone, and it never arrived.  Just curious if anyone ...

Does anyone know if the MPx200 phone being offered bt ATT and Amazon is using Windows Mobile 2002 or 2003 software ? My
guess would be 2002 but I cannot find out from Amazon whether or n ot it is the updated 2003 version. Also, if it is
2002, would it be up-gradeable to 2003 ? ...

Hoe does email actually work on gsm phone? where do you send it? please
explain

Numbers game could shake cell industry:

In this article, Morgan Stanley found AT&T Wireless Services Inc., the
nation's third-largest carrier, may lose 43 percent of its customers.

That's what I had to listen to yesterday when I called 611 and waited
on hold for their
customer service reps.
I eventually gave up after 3 minutes.

The Los Angeles Daily News reported today that ATTWS would soon be
announcing a reduction in their per-minute rate (minutes used in excess of
the plan minutes) down to 8 or 9 cents per minute from 30-40 cents today.

Are Nokia chargers common across phones?  I have several for a 6360 - will
they work with a 6200?  The specs on the charger appear to be a bit
different but the AT&T rep said they will work.  I don't want to melt me new
phone.  Thanks -Mike

Jeez, it's only the beginning of the true wireless evolution of
broadband for consumers, that will eventually (many years from now)
displace cable modems and DSL as the #1 high-speed internet
technology...
