I'm all for an open phone platform.
But this Cingular is now AT&T Wireless is just odd. I was an AT&T Wireless person for many years, then they became Cingular and now they're becoming AT&T? Just odd.
And the reason that AT&T Wireless went through that weird period when coverage area was reduced was only if you switched from their primary TDMA system to the then new (but old to the rest of the planet) GSM system.
I remember when they (AT&TW) were touting the arrival of GSM and offering to switch me. I looked at the coverage map and decided that I had no interest in returing to the same coverage area I enjoyed/suffered through in 1991.
