Cell phone providers?

Filed under: @ 3:00 pm

Quick little poll - I’m looking to ditch Sprint and was thinking about going with either a Sidekick or Blackberry phone from T-Mobile. But I figured I’d abuse my readership and see if anyone had any thoughts, recommendations or warnings about T-Mobile, the devices and/or any other solutions. Anybody have anything to share?

Update (2/7/05): Well, by reading more reviews and this editorial, I might stick with Sprint and spring for a Treo 650. Although, there seems to be some question about my account right now, so hopefully a Sprint rep will give me some news soon that will make the decision a little easier…

  1. You should get one of those things that Paris Hilton uses. Then you could get laundry advice from Wayne Newton.

  2. Yeah, although I’m not sure I would want to get laundry advice from Wayne Newton. But if fabric softener is how he gets the ladies - who am I to argue?

  3. i had them back when they were voicestream. my major complaint with them in NYC was that they didn’t have any building penetration… i didn’t have signal in my apartment or at my desk at work, so i dropped them. AFAIK they’re still stuck in the 1900 MHz band only, whereas AT&T/Cingular were both starting to standardize on the 850 MHz band, which IME has been better.

    BTW my fiancée has a danger hiptop, and it’s pretty neat. :)
