Thinking of switching to Cingular

[dartworth]

I currently have a few lines with Verizon and Cingular. Both have worked great for my needs.

I recently went on a trip from Cleveland, OH to Northern California. It was over 5000 miles roundtrip. I took 2 Cingular phones with me, a Moto V635 and V551. I had great reception for the whole trip. I used the V551 exclusively as a modem for my laptop. It connected to my 700m laptop via bluetooth. It worked out great.

My buddy that was with me was using Verizon. He did have a few dropped calls and reception problems. I was quite surprised by this. It may have been his phone. It was a newer Samsung I believe.

I am sure you would be happy with either service. Myself, I prefer the freedom GSM gives you by using SIM cards. I try out a lot of different phones, and just switching out a SIM makes it so simple.

I have been using Cingular for almost 2 years (I was a formerly AT&T Wireless customer before Cingular acquired them), and I have no compliants... reception has been GREATLY improved after the AT&T WS & Cingular merge, and I havent had any problems with billing either...

And I bought an unlocked phone off ebay 2 weeks ago, stick my SIM card in and I'm using the new phone with my old number... Cingular never had to be involved...
