So i had a razr before. It is on the verge of being “not-cool” (LOL) so i decided to upgrade. Special ordered this guy: [fancy phone](http://europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,,62356,00.html) ![http://www.nokiausa.com/images/phn/7280_pro.jpg](http://www.nokiausa.com/images/phn/7280_pro.jpg) the reception is kind of shitty though… a little pissed about that, but it is really small. and weird. and cool. I haven’t been able to get my text messages to work though… It says the sim card is not setup. I don’t know the message center number for cingular in this area… does anyone? ---

non-850 phones are the suck with cingular. The reason you’re getting shitty reception is because basically all you can pick up with that is T-mobile and a few old-school cingular towers. ---

I saw that thing, funny as hell. I think you might have problems with SMS since you imported it. A friend of a friend kinda thing, I’ve heard it’s a bit of a pain in the ass. ---
