Default unlocked phone question?

if buying an unlocked phone will it work on any any providor? say if i buy a 7210 or a v60gi both gsm will they work on cingular tdma??

"The New Nokia 7210 Is Stunning with superb architecture. It is yet to be released and only at particular service providers. Order an unlocked one here and now and you can use it on any service provider and you will get it before it is released in the United States."

Default unlocked phone question?

First, if you're question is will they work on Cingular's TDMA towers, the answer's no....

If you want to activate them in a TDMA area, and bounce of T-MO towers, as I was told last night, the answer is no. I work for a Cingular agency and was informed we are NOT permitted to activate GSM phones in this area at this time.

i guess a more accurate statement would be: you can activate it on any provider with compatible service.
