Ok to be honest I really dont care about a camera in my cell phone (but
if the best phone right now is a camera phone so be it)  Im shortly
changing service and live in the L A county area of so cal. right now Im
with vermizon and gotten a dud vx 4400 . Whats the most reliable ...

So, if I had a friend activate a phone for me in say, California, then
used my phone in Utah (where I live), on a national plan, could I get
away with that?

Or are giat phones just more trouble than they are worth.

In areas that went GSM/GAIT only, such as N. and S. Jersey in the last 6
months, what happened to al the TDMA phone they had in stock ?
What if I wanted to replace my TDMA phone with another new, lighter TDMA
one as they were selling 6 months ago, could I any longer do it ?

I just stumbled on your NG here and thought maybe you could offer some

I know I posted this before, but I can't find the original question.

  I travel between Philly and the State College/Harrisburg area VIA the

I just don't get it. PCS stands for Personal Communcation system or
something like that. That being the case Sprint phones can be called
PCS, but so can a walkie talkie, or a baby monitor. So what is the
difference between Sprint and Cingular?

We are thinking of switching to Cingular from another carrier.   Any
opinions on the coverage, service, and phone to buy for this area?  I
don't need web or email access just a good phone to talk on.  
Thanks for your help.

"Extended"?    Can I trust the maps at
