Default PhoneScoop.com - Completely Unreliable!

Never ever rely on Phone Scoop they are completely unreliable. They give information on different cell phones and the majority of their inform,ation is wrong! They mistake some phones for others. Such as the New Nokia (yet to be released) 3590 for the Nokia 3560. They said that, that phone is available at ATT Wireless when it isn't. And they also give the wrong phone information, even the name of the phone! Simple mistakes like those show how unrerliable that website is. Almost all their information is wrong! Don't use their site for help! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

They aren't giving wrong information on purpose! Carriers change things often. The 3590 is GSM and is heading for ATT, it DOESN'T say ATT has it, it says it is tentative. Look at it more closely. Nokia's ending in 90's are GSM, ending in 60's are TDMA, and TDMA is on the way out with new phones. There might be a 3560, but not right now. And just to get this off my chest, stop whining about Verizon's phone selection. They care about getting good reception, that's why they offer phones with the external antennas, plus other reasons. Sure I'd love to see a small slim nokia like the 8200's on Verizon, maybe someday. You have a nice slim phone with Verizon and you are NOT even paying for it, so be grateful!

I once was banned from his site for good because I copied an image (FCC IMAGES). It was my bad, but the owner was a total punk, even after I apologized 3 times (in a very profuse manner). Very unprofessional for a "mass market" site.

In any case, I end up with more info than him since i have friends who are faster at finding new phones than him, and friends on the inside for different companies (SE, Nokia, Qualcomm, Kyocera-wireless, you name it..that's the fun of living in San Diego) and I get more funny antedoctele news than he can put out.
