no Boost isn't local. It is another network with Push to Talk like Nextel.

How soon after the launch of the P910i was the P910a available?

I got my P910a at the end of October. So I think it was like 2 months different, but I'd have to check the official P910i release date somewhere.
As far as I know, I had the first P910a that expansys sold. So I should have gotten it fairly close to the release date.

Anyone out here experiencing problems with Cingular?
I have Cingular service and all my outgoing functions work perfectly fine. I have not been receiving any incoming calls or messages since last night. I live in the Boston area and I guess I am experiencing this problem in a 60 mile radius that I have checked out since last night. I have a K750i and reception is mostly 4 or 5 bars where I live. I tried my K700i and I have the same problem. However if I use a phone that has the 850 MHz frequency (Nokia 3200(b) or T616, everything works fine. Cingular customer service is closed today and I dont even think they will ever fix this problem for me because they would say I am not using a phone that was issued by Cingular.
Just wondering if I am the only one? |

I have friends at Cingular who recommeneded me against the K750 as Cingular is converting most of it's 1900 MHZ to 850.
Also to get through the 1900 MHZ on Cingular now, this must be filtered through 850 then 1900. This could be the problem. It's some
You will experience times in where you will lose signal or have minimal signal. 1900 will be a back up for Cingular.

My question on the P910i and P910a was due to my anxiety on the next P series. I've been holding of for months on purchasing a PDA phone.
I'm hopng that it has WIFI and 850MHZ band. I need a PDA for work and don't know how much more I can wait.
The P910a would be Ideal, however am hoping for same specs on the next model with WIFI included. I spend alot of time in airports and WIFI
means remaining productive for me.

@ REO
Thanks for the reply and I have heard about this before. I have been using non 850 Mhz phones from the day I switched to Cingular from AT&T and I have never had any problems. Even right now I have excellent reception and all my outgoing calls are static free and perfectly fine. However, none of my incoming services seem to work. My phone doesnt indicate when a new voicemail is received, but if I check my voicemail, I have messages from people who tried to call me. If I call them back they tell me that my phone did not ring and the call was directed to my voicemail right away. I just dont understand why outgoing would work and not incoming? |

@ramba, there is someone in the P series section that has a P800 and is complaining that Cingular voicemail notifications stopped working recently. That phone does not have 850 either. It seems it must have something to do with either Cingular branding or the 850 band since I assume your T616 is branded and has 850.
@REO my P910a is working fine, but to be honest, when I upgrade, I doubt it will be to the next P. It just seems so far off in the future and with no really convincing leads, I am not really waiting for it. I plan to get the HTC wizard because it is small, has a keyboard, WiFi, PDA functions and whatnot. Also, there is a rumor that it will come to Cingular sometime around October or November.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that it is Quad-Band and has EDGE

I got my phone to work this morning. I called Cingular customer care and they fixed it for me. I was asked to power cycle my phone and while I was doing it, the rep sent some kinda message to my sim (I was told so) and everything works fine now. |

I hope nobody here got hurt by the Hurricane. The devastation I have seen on the news is pretty severe. Unfortunately I don't think they will be checking in here if they were affected by the disaster.
I hope that relief efforts find all the victims quickly. I know it will take a long time before New Orleans or Biloxi are recovered in any real sense. |
