no you cannot. nextel uses iDen, cingular uses tdma and gsm

Nextel work on Specialized Mobile Radio band “SMR”
Cingular uses Cellular band and/or PCS bands depending on which market you are in.
Even if Cingular used iDEN along with TDMA/GSM it still would not work.
For example if your radio does only FM you can't pick up AM stations unless it capable to do it.
Your phone only works on SMR and not Cellular nor PCS. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
