Does Verizon offer any cellphone service discounts to people that have
Verizon for their phone service and Verizon FIOS for their Internet? As far
as I can find, there is none. That makes T-Mobile look much less expensive,
especially for pay-as-you-go service.

I bet that of either the Comcast unit he works for, or the one out near you,
one was originally another company and the other was not. And perhaps the
contracts in force at the time of the purchase haven't expired, or the
management in whichever region hasn't decided to switch over yet. *shrug*

Remember, Comcast snapped up ATTBI and a few smaller cable systems.

My guess is that Mikey may have gone to some lengths
for a dispensation to get a Cingular phone... you know,
one of the "cool" phones.

Probably.....
TCI, then ATTBI then Comcast here in Seattle area
All above used Nextel, so it may be a legacy thing...

Ok, since all of you have been assuming and speculating about what phone I
use for work and why, I'll clear it up for you since it seems so interesting
to you guys. Really, you need to direct your interests to other
things...OTHER then me!!

We use Nextel across the board for general use and most of our technical
services/people. Some of our administration or management get Cingular
and/or Blackberry. I have both Nextel and Cingular. Nextel's cellular phone
service is the worst and I wouldn't even think of using them. I haven't
brought out the Nextel phone in a long time. My Cingular phone (which is a
plain jane 6200, not a loaded bells and whistle phone you think I have) has
just gotten worse over the last several months.

Ok, there you have it. Write down in your diaries all this information or
publish it some where. Why in the world you guys wanna talk about what kind
of phones I have is beyond my knowledge but I'm a natural born leader and
I'm always having people follow me or trying to be like me. That's right!
