Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I love this at the bottom of each page:
This device has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. This device is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.
Why can't be be like Europe, where a specific cellphone is not tied to only one phone company? Actually, I thought I read a rumor somewhere that the iPhone would work with multiple services....
Since Cingular has the exclusive, it's a GSM phone. It will work with other GSM providers once it's been unlocked. (Cingular usually provides the unlock codes after 90 days of service.) If you're with Verizon or Sprint, you're out of luck.
If anyone's looking for reasonably inexpensive unlocked phones (tri- and quad-band available), look at myworldphone.com: [link] Their shipping charge is high, but every phone has been as described, and I've received most of them within 24 hours of placing the order.
Once it is unblocked, that mean that I can take the little chip out of my t-mobile phone and put it in the unblacked phone?

Yep.
My TV has it's own computer too, a MythTV box. One of the cooler things I've seen with that is using an XBox (not a 360) as a MythTV frontend. If I didn't already have my system all set up, I'd be thinking about picking up a used XBox for a frontend and have a file server/Myth backend/router computer. I still might try that sometime.
Well, looks like a paid too much for the magenta razr that I bought just cause it was magenta! But, I could get a light pink one, now too!
Maria just made my day!

Accessorizing with cell phones! It's the new black.

Yay! Which one are you going to get?
I've ordered 5 or 6 phones from them over the last 2 years, for various family members. We're not big fans of 2 year contracts, either.
As soon as they are available I will be getting one. I'm already on Cingular. June is way too far away.
Only one, honey?
