I certainly agree with Dewayne. I use a Nokia E61 with T-Mobile having given up in disgust with ATT Wireless years ago. I can do VOIP oover the E61 but I almost never do in practice in the USA. BTW the E61 works everywhere I have tried it. I carry a 4 gig Ipod mini.
Daveps by the time the Iphone gets out it will be ATTT Wireless again with the same bad service I suspect.

Private to you:o I agree with your comments in the article about the iPhone. That being said, I will undoubtedly purchase one when it becomes available. However, I will only use it to connect to Wi-Fi services and NOT to the Cingular network. If I can't purchase the phone without signing up for a Cingular plan, then I won't buy it. Further, if it doesn't allow some way of using VoIP over Wi-Fi, then I won't buy it.
o I'm currently a Cingular customer and use a Nokia 6682. I also carry a 2nd gen iPod Shuffle on my belt and use it to listen to podcasts.
