I've used it on both T-Mobile and Cingular. As far as Cingular, the
best place for help is right here on this form. Few Customer Service
people have a clue about GPRS or EDGE. Cingular support's both GPRS and
EDGE. On Edge I have seen speed up to 200k, but because I'm in an area
that supposably doesn't support EDGE yet, so its not stable. With GPRS
you will typically see speed at about 44k to 60k. I am on a Package
called "Media Works" that has unlimited data for only $19.99 a month.
Cingular will tell you that this plan is only for phone WAP access,
but it works just fine connected to a laptop, desktop or PDA. The promo
I signed up on advertised "Media Works" for a limited time and the ad
claimed the offer expired on July 31(I think). However, I think they did
this so they have a way out just incase their networks became
overwhelmed. I think you can still get the package. Compared to
T-mobile, Cingular is faster, however people at T-mobile seemed to know
what they where talking about when you need help. Looking back at
Cingular you can see where they have GPRS and EDGE coverage by taking a
look at this map http://www.cingular.com/download/Gprs-Edge_07_29.pdf .
If you have any more question, just send us a post and I'm sure someone
will help you.

Woops, I read the subjet as "Internet Wireless" and not "Intelnet
Wireless". Owe well maybe someone will get some inforamtion out of my
other post. I'll read more closely next time :-b

One wonders if this is some kind of oversight, and if someday they
will close whatever loophole is allowing this to occur... OTOH, this
is what stopped me from defecting over to T-Mobile, who also offers
unlimited GPRS Internet for $19.95/month. I can always follow through
with my defection plans if Cingular decides to make detrimental
changes...

Indeed you can - I just signed up for it today. In fact, I'm using it
to reply to your post.

Actually, I don't think this will happen(I hope), but I have been wrong
before. The reason Cingular came out with the "Media Works" package was
to compete with T-mobile Unlimited Package and Sprint upcoming unlimited
data plan(not yet available as faw as I know). If anything, I think they
will expand their unlimited data plan to isp.cingular. Back when
T-mobile first offered unlimited data it was only for the Danger
Sidekicks. Later they included the Trio PDA and shortly after that they
open it for everyone. Cinuglar could be doing the same to make sure they
don't overload their network. Again this is all speculative so it could
go either way. I will say this, if they did stop it, I WILL break my
contract with cingular to move back to T-mobile. Just last month I
download 200mb of data and if I remember right that would have cost well
over $100 just for the data. I just use it way too much.
