Hello!

I've just started working in the wireless industry and have been looking for a site just like this! Nifty! I'm a peon data collector for lucent at the moment, but I'm hoping to bone up and get myself a better job in this arena...

As for actual owner ship... I've been resisting a cell phone for years but when UMTS comes out I may have to change my tune

So hello world!

Doug

Hello WA,
My cellphone industry experience started in 1987. Started my own company in 1992 also in this industry. We are very active with cellphone of both CDMA and GSM that are 2 years or older.

I look forward to learning more from this site about the new phones with so many data and media capabilities.

Welcome on board,

we have a very mixed user base here at WA. Most people use CDMA but there are a number of us who use GSM.

Hello,

New to the site.

I still am under the old ATT plan and have the old Nokia 3560 phone with lots of grandfathered promotions and thus is why I have not converted to Cingular.

Hi everyone !

I bought a Verizon / Audiovox xv6600 and am trying to learn the in's and out's of using it.

Very quickly I discovered that Pocket PC isn't the same as Windows and that having someone to answer questions could be _very_ helpful.

So the journey begins ...

(hopefully I can answer a few que
tions too)

cheers!

I know that GSM Towers throughtou Europe are in both the 900/1800Mhz range. Do you know of any site that: 1) Shows location of the towers Lat/Long and 2) shows whether the tower is transmitting at 900 or 1800 Mhz throughout Germany, though I am specifically interested in the Stuttgart area?

Hi THolschuh,

do you speak German?

1) There are a couple which might do the trick:

http://www.stuttgart.de/sde/content....=item&id=31015
http://emf.bundesnetzagentur.de/gisi...r=1000&Lang=de
http://www.nobbi.com/tables.htm
http://handy-world.com/ (Click on D1 for T-Mobile, D2 for Vodafone or E-Plus)

2) Not directly. With E-Plus and O2, you can always tell that you're on GSM 1800 or UMTS 2100 (3GSM - new 3rd Generation network standard deployed in Asia, Europe and in North America (UMTS 1900/eventually UMTS 850 and possibly UMTS 2100)). E-Plus and O2 have GSM 1800-only towers. The complication arises when you look at T-Mobile or Vodafone since they run most of their sites on GSM 900 and use GSM 1800 as backup/capacity sites as well as the new 3rd Generation UMTS 2100 standard (GSM 900/1800 is 2.5 GSM meaning the preceding generation).

Hope this helps,

I'm not quite new to this forum but it's been a while since the last time I posted. Currently I live in So. Cali.

Well, I finally said bye to my AT&T account and joined Verizon wireless for RAZR V3c! So far so good.
I also have a Sidekick II with T-mo for data (that's the only one device that recognizes Japanese characters without modification, yes, I'm Japanese) and my family members share Cingular family plan.

I just wanted to say hi!!!
