Cingular Extended?

[Hyudra]

Instead of seeing Cingular on my phone I sometimes see Cingular Extended. What does that mean?

You're in an extended calling area?

That's their secret code for "roaming". :shocked:

Hm, that's really weird. I see Extended when I'm in my own home!

Uh oh. Sounds like you live outside of their service area. :Q

I have Cingular also and only see that when outside their normal service area.
