but seriously, i like it. and i can see some pretty good uses for it. but it's just so damn pricey right now. it's $0.01 /kb (total send/receive). and you pretty much waste about 5k just logging on and loading your homepage. damn.
For 8 bucks Cingular provides the Media Basic package. It's a meg of internet, 250 text messages and 50 multimedia messages. I've been selling a bunch of those.

You don't want either, unless you seriously want a tiny phone. The latter is the GD55, we carried that about 6 months ago. Speaker phone, and polyphonic ring tones, that's it. Hehe. . Neat little phone though, but you won't find anything for it.

I finally picked up a V600. I never thought I would have full blown pr0n on my phone. Technology is wonderful.

Edit: mp3 ringtones @ wap.rousso.net

Wow. that does look nice. Though that Motorola MPX300 (or whatever that dual flip phone is called) is what I'm really interested in.

OK. Since my cell. phone is supplied by and paid for by work, I can't just rush out and get the latest and greatest toy that catches me fancy. So, I'm trying to find a way to finnagle a new phone for me.

Right now we have ATT Wireless TDMA nationwide service because we need nationwide coverage for business travel.

So, does anyone know if a multi-mode phone exists for the US market that can use TDMA and the newer GSM/GPRS?

Is that what that type of phone is? ATT's website is useless for any sort of technical info.

Thanks!

It looks like ATTWS seems to have discontinued all of the GAIT-enabled phones. Cingular appears to offer them still.
