You have to keep in mind, though, that T-Mobile (and its predecessors, Voicestream, etc) and Sprint never had analog service (although Sprint's phones would work on Verizon's analog network). The thing, now, is that all the services that had analog (Verizon, Cingular) are the ones who have converted over to digital, and still have their analog services, to this day. One of my coworkers still has an analog Startac, that he uses. -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org To be notified of updates to the web site, visit http://www.bubbanfriends.org/mailman/listinfo/site-update, or send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a message of: subscribe
