Get the K1, not the K1m. The K1m is a piece of crap, because Verizon and Sprint put so many restrictions on their phones, its not even funny. The unlocked one would give you the most freedom, I would get that one.

Yeah, I've been with verizon, so now i'm wondering... which is better- T-mobile or cingular? Cuz i hear that cingular is really bad about roaming and its customer service is a pain in the ass.

I have had both and Cingular is the best by far. Customer service is great when I need them and they even waive certain fees for me if I ask them to. They have great coverage, I have never found a dead spot with them.

T-mobile is good, but not as good as Cingular. If you are on a budget, T-mobile may be the choice for you, as they tend to be cheaper.

Don't they charge a lot if you roam a lot, though? If I went with t-mobile I'd have to either:

a) Get the unlocked and pay an extra $200-350.
b) Get the cingular phone, unlock it myself using UltimaBOX, [either stick with cingular for the duration of the contract or pay a hefty cancellation fee :\ ],
THEN go with t-mobile

I just don't really see a point in getting the unlocked version... It costs so much more and it's a bit of a hassle lol

No, Cingular does not have any roaming fees.

Unlocked phones are great for some people, and for others, not so great. Get what is right for you.

Well I know one thing for sure.. "The network with the fewest dropped calls" is total bullshit.

I'd say it was true, they do have the fewest dropped calls. That doesnt mean they don't have dropped calls, jic you took that the wrong way.
