Cingular Treo 600 using T-Mobile service
 

Hi there,

I am considering buying a Treo 600 from Cingular since it is unlocked. I want to use it with T-Mobile. I tried it in the store and it works. Any disadvantages? I can't access t-zones, maybe no more applicable since it has pop3 access?

Also is there a way to change the boot up picture showing the Cingular sign to something else?

Thanks for any input!

As long as the WAP/GPRS and POP3 settings can *ALL* be changed you will be able to get it going no problems...

Doing a search on Google Newsgroups (ex-Deja), will come up with more info on settings:

internet2.voicestream.com is the primary APN for GPRS when using standard T-Mobile internet GPRS service. Note you may need to check with customer service if your account can access Internet Access and not just T-Zones.

Thanks Nick 1K, I bought it and everything works. I have the T-Mobile unlimited Internet access so no problem. Can't access T-Zones, but I guess its not necessary since the Treo has a built in web browser and pop3 mail access. Wondering if the t-Mobile Treo has t-zones?

Thanks again,

Did you setup a bookmark (WAP) for T-Zones?

I tried to set up a bookmark but with no success. It will not accept a wap link, only www. Could it be that the Treo 600 is not wap enabled? Or I may do something wrong...would't be the first time :rolleyes:
