I am so disappointed with this phone. The sound and coverage are fine, but
the features are useless. AT&T, while their web site says it supports mMode
and wireless Internet, AT&T actually does not support this. (I guess it was
to much to hope for with TDMA from AT&T.) And now Nokia isn't even going to
provide the PC Suite. I have a phone full of features that I can't use.
Two thumbs down to both AT&T and Nokia.
