    Besides, what you mean once everything is done? All this was, was just a huge name change man. There isn't going to be any change in service at all, it's still good old Cingular service under the "New" AT&T name
    LOL the entire AT&T system doesnt run cingular right now...Theres some outdated ones they are still working on and once that gets done, holy shit...

    I wouldnt even CONSIDER an Iphone til they get them with 3g

    Hah there is no "old" AT&T anymore. As of 2008, TDMA is out the door. As of March, all the TDMA pre-paid phones were terminated. Verizon is having that problem as well, you know how they pride themselves on having "the largest" network and , they're able to say that b/c they bought out all the old TDMA towers that other smaller carriers couldn't afford to support anymore and went out of business. For example, if something happened to Metro PCS and they had build some towers, and went out of business, Verizon would come in and buy those towers. Well guess what's happening now, the new Verizon phones aren't supporting TDMA anymore, it's pointless. So the "largest all-over network is slowly going downhill

    It's pretty shitty the Iphone isn't coming with 3G But to the average consumer/customer, they could care-less about that and have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what 3g is anyways

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    It's pretty much internet speed on a phone. It allows for streaming video/music/video calling, etc....

    To me, There is no iphone WITHOUT 3g. Why the hell would you want a basically PC in a phone and not be able to use its capabilitys?

    jullian, as far as the TDMA thing, i heard that they are trying to convert those over to GSM. I may be wrong but eh, when you hear shit from corporate techs, you never know

    Yea the way they were trying to do that was by sending out all the customers who still use TDMA a letter saying "you can upgrade to the "new" AT&T gsm service and receive a new phone and " , and if you didn't switch your phone over, it would get cancelled If you had a TDMA pre-paid, it's already cancelled. And if you have a TDMA post paid, you have until 2008. Also, those customers who have TDMA were also getting charged $5 extra a month for having TDMA

    And I agree, not having 3g really sucks. That's why I think i'm just gonna stick with the 8525
