Fine, will Cingular now provide new 64K sims to all their 20 million
original customers to replace their 32K sims for free?

That wouldn't help unless it also replaces handsets, which would take billions
of dollars; i.e., ain't gonna happen any time soon. ;-)

Well when I got my RAZR, Cust Serv said that a 64k was correct and
would improve my sound during playing sounds. Notice That I did not
use "streaming audio" since it is a product. I asked my dealer about
the correctness of the 64k and I was told the 32k was just fine for my
phone. So Just because I bought a new phone and line, they were not
about to give me a 64k. Maybe they did not have any.
