What a rip! Sprint told me it's only $300-400 to get out of a Sprint
contract. What's it cost to early terminate a Cingular contract? Why
doesn't he just terminate? Getting a $1200 monthly bill is ridiculous!
UNLIMITED data to a Sprint windows phone is only about $10/month, and
there's no way to limit it to not operate tethered to a computer (other than
unreasonably large download usage). And it's EVDO, so it blows away that
measley 125 - 175 kbit. I really think those PCMCIA cards are a rip-off for
service cost compared to just getting unlimited data service to your
cellphone. I love ppc6700 windows phones ... a lot lighter and smaller than
a laptop yet nearly as capable.

oh, I'm most certainly under $1200, even for a whole year. :-p
Anyone have experience getting out of a bad Cingular deal?

Even if he can't get out of the Cingular contract, I would think paying
you your normal rates would cost less than $1200 to Cingular. Suggest
that your unlimited service is still less expensive than overages.

I have a potential customer that wanted to "try out" my service. He's
got money, so I wasn't afraid he was looking to get something for
nothing. He has Cingular now and can only get 125 - 175 kbit out of it.
I clearly can provide a faster less latent service for a lower monthly
cost (costs him $70/month).
Apparently he wasn't on the unlimited rate plan and got hit with a $1200
bill. He doesn't think he can get out of his Cingular. *argh*
That said, can anyone think of a way to hookup a standalone fax machine
with the Cingular card? I can't contemplate anything at all.
