The service provider that Apple made a deal with does not provide service in Vermont. I heard about it on NPR a few days ago.

...owned!

cingular's service sucks balls anyways. a phone is a phone, i would never switch servers just to get the "latest" phone. its obviously what cingulars trying to do, but they have shitty coverage so it wont work.

Nah cingular def sucks. Mad people at school have it, some have had to change to new services, some haven't. Cingular is def the pits though.

Verizon gets me full coverage almost anywhere in VT.

I feel that cingular is the best service.  That is just my opinion.  Also it DOES work in NH and CT very well so..

Sure, I get coverage in many places, but I can't even count the number of dropped calls I have EVERY day. It's absolutely horrible. That, and I've been through four of their phones in six months. Shit keeps going wrong with them, over and over. Fuck you, Cingular.

well if that's not where he lives no shit...roaming just means you're out of your area code it has nothing to do with service

roaming means that your cell phone company doesn't have sevice in the area, so you have to use a different cell phone company's service tower.

Ironically, my coach who has Cingular is one of the few people I know who gets cell service on the backside of my mountain.

dude, there's so much tech that's used in our every day lives that's made possible by IBM.

the only reason that PowerPC didn't really take off in terms of IBM's standpoint is that IBM was never really concerned about making products for the consumer market.

actually, fuck it, i'm gonna stop. trying to reason on ns is like ramming your head into a wall.
