since your contract is over and you cant void it, just unlock the old phone.

I like Cingular. They have always solved my problems. I just disputed a charge and they refunded the charge and then turned off all services on all phones (by my request) so they only work as a phone. No extra charges that way.

Unlock? What do you mean and how do you do it? Link or intruction?

Can't wait to flash the firmware on it though- My RAZR was so heavily modded (faster menu loads, battery life, themes, etc.)

I saw an ad on our local paper that all RAZR are $50 but with 2 years contract. How do you flash the firmware and what good will it do? Modded?

I am tempted to switch to sprint for the 7pm nights and cheapo plans. Also for the Samsung A900 they've got... NICE PHONE. I am a Nokia whore though, so I'll stick to GSM probably :)

I moved to the 6682 from the 6230 about 5-6 months ago. Both are great phones.
You will of course notice that the 6682 is quite a bit bigger and heavier but a great phone.

I still use the 6230 on my 2nd line. It's probably my favorite phone I've owned.

as you can see I'm a bit of a Nokia whore myself Text
