Correction...I can find the UMA phones...just not the ability to select the service. I would be very happy if you could show me where that is. As for the plans...they are not saving anyone any money. $40 extra per line (that's what shows in the cart) on a family plan over the first two is outrageous. My current needs would certainly see a major increase in cost over the old plans.
No need to get testy...if it's still there then I'd like you to show me where. I've run through the site and run nearly every combination of packages and phones and there is no mention of UMA capability anywhere. They may be having "website issues", but I sure can't find UMA phones on their site. Can you?
Not only is MyFavs gone, it seems that UMA service is gone as well. This is BS!
@Jon....actually I believe in China their version of CDMA does have a SIM card slot. A CDMA SIM card called the R-UIM (Re-Useable Identification Module) and it was made available in China in 2002. I believe the plan is to roll them out worldwide eventually.
@ Cy Starkman...Not all PCs at the time were still using Serial and Parallel interfaces at that time. In fact, many PCs that predated the iMac (released August 1998) had motherboards with onboard USB. My K6-2 machine of the day (purchased in June 1998) had a Super Socket 7 Mobo with two onboard USB ports.
I used to use a Panasonic W4 Toughbook at my last job and found it to be an excellent machine. I agree that the light weight and unique optical drive made it a pleasure to work with while traveling. If I hadn't had two personal laptops at home already I would have bought it off of the company when I left. Very nice...I hope to someday pick up another.
Nope, but the Fuzz sure do.
Right...this is a sad day for WinMo fans. Even though i-Mate simply sold rebranded HTC, they were an early proponent of Windows Mobile at a time when the mainstream was not. Everyone knows HTC now, but it wasn't so long ago that they weren't a household name and you had phone like the i_mate or the Audiovox SMT5600. I appreciate what they did for pushing smartphones.
I wonder if my copy of "Civilization: Call to Power" for BeOS will run on this?
@ Dana: Apparently you have the same level of confidence in German management as Vince "The Germans Always Make Good Stuff" Offer.:)
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
