Is the Sony Ericsson D750 finally coming to America? T-Mobile Europe already scored an exclusive on the European version of the phone (the D750i), but the FCC has just given the D750 its seal of approval, so it looks like there’s a good chance that either T-Mobile USA or Cingular will be introducing this two megapixel cameraphone here in the States sometime soon.
Oh and I corrected them when they said T-Mobile has exclusivity.
Idiots.

that sounds very exciting. I wonder why they would approve that phone and not the K750 or the W800. I personally prefer the looks of the D750 to the K750, but I am scared it will only be on T-Mobile.

the D750 is the W800's body with a few changes.
Imagine a K750 with a W800 body.
Thats all.

I sure do like the black design of the K750i better. I hope this one comes to awesome T-Mobile USA but I doubt it since they haven't been taking in any SE phones lately.

Cingular has always carried phones. There are rumors that indicate that Cingular has made a commitment with Nokia to only buy candy bar style phones from Nokia. I hope this is just a rumor.
I much rather buy Cingular branded phones  as they support 850/1900. Cingular has put a great emphasis on 850 as it is a better reception specifically in buildings and rural areas. 1900 can be picked up in major cities and highways, however going into rural areas the 1900 becomes a problem signal wise. with the 850/1900 combination you will always have a signal. Since the AT&T merger, Cingular has dedicated to building and converting to an 850 band.
I hope Cingular continues to provide candy bar style phones.
I think I would go for the D750, it looks sleek.

I just came from the T-Mobile Store and the guy said the following: I asked him if they will get any SE phones in. His reply was "No" they had too many problems with the T610. Currently they have 0 SE phones. He also said they won't get the D750 nor any other smart phones in. They do not replace the Nokia 6600 witht the 6680 adn they discontinued the HP 6315 also. Right now they are doing financially good and have the best plans in the business. I told him their phones suck and he agreed. Then I showed him my P900 to make him feel very bad. Also they have EDGE built into their network, but wait to launch it. That is the latest what I heart.

That's good news...... Then Cingular, the biggest network in the U.S. will most likely pick it up.
If T- Mobile is so arrogant as to say that they have the best plans, they are in a fog. I've done my home work and is the reason why I've stayed with Cingular.
Cingular has the most coverage area, better signal, better towers. The largest mobile to mobile community. When you look at T- Mobiles mobile to mobile coverage map, it is a laugh 
It is very minimal. You would have to use your minutes plan, most of the time. There are no rollover minutes. If you don't use them ,you lose them. Not the case with Cingular's rollover minutes.
Take my plan 850 peak minutes / Free Mobile to Mobile / Unlimited free nights and weekends. I use about 400 - 500 minutes a month.
My rollover minutes balance is at 5,800 , which means I don't watch my minutes when I'm on the phone during peak time. I just talk away with out a care. Try that on T-Mobile plans.
Their reception sucks, That's why I dropped them several years ago.
Back to the subject at hand. Cingular, bring on the D750 and the S800 and all other phones. Yes ... Yes... Yes....
