GSM replacement for a TDMA phone?

I have a Motorola Timeport P8197 TDMA/analog celphone which came with my car back in Y2001, and my cellular provider is Cingular.

On 9/14/2006 Cingular notiified me that they are shortly going to stop providing TDMA/analog service, and that I must change to a new GSM phone.

This phone is used both handheld and plugged into the car, where it works as a car speakerphone.

I am trying to find out if there is a newer model Motorola cellphone for sale that uses the newer GSM type of service and has the exact same "port" (or receptacle) as my current Timeport P8197 celphone.

I asked Motorola, but so far have received no answer from them.

Does anyone out there have the answer to my question?

I did a little research and found that like the name this phone is a timeport back to to past (way back j/k) I couldn't find exactly what kind of recepticle your speaking of on any other phones truth is with todays technology your better off buying a good phone with bluetooth and getting a car adapter.

motorola is tellin u 2 get a new phone they're just gonna ignore you so u can either keep calling them or just get urself somethin new..
