Thanks, Rob, you're right - Madison WI is in AC608. Would you also check to
see if the 7 pm option is available for this area? Thanks.

Thanks for checking. It's no biggie, I wouldn't buy it any way, but I was
curious because Cingular offers it in this market.

As I have posted before, I appreciate your posts, thanks.

The 5350 multi-band. It can roam.

F&CA *was* $10 extra. Now, in Chicago too, it's $5/month, and no longer a=

This seems a daily occurance: SprintPCS people disagreeing. Why do they
post stuff they don't know about. This is help?

Any LG Product for Sprint is highly suspect and can be counted on to
fail.

Until it was stolen a few weeks ago I had a LG5350 which replaced my earlier
LG5250. It certainly wasn't a perfect phone (the ringer was way too quiet)
but it was small, had a pretty good display, and reliable.
