After School Special Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 I think internet is 20 a month on cingular, or at least it is with T-Mobile (what I JUST got....) I can't imagine that there will be too many monthly fees other than data, which is already a set price. Nav might be monthly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Wallbanger Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I've been waiting for this to drop... I switched to Verizon in March, and got a Razr phone, which I hate. I also hate Verizon, and was going to switch back to Cingular, but I read some speculation back in August that this was going to drop right after the new year, and was going to be exclusively on Cingular for the first six months. It looks like it was worth holding out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want an iPhone you're going to need to get on AT&T. Sooooo ugly!!!! Dear Apple, Quit limiting your user base. Some of us are using other companies. Thank you.

AllTheWrongWords Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 That shit doesnt take pictures.... it has so much shit but cant even take one fucking picture. They couldve introduced bluetooth camera that syncs to the phone.... Theres something about a spur of the moment thing in which you can pull out your phone and take pictures with it and send it soomeone. Your other choice would be to have your actual camera tag along everywhere you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
