Thinking about buying Cinular...
My work provides me with a Cingular cellphone since there are times that I am oncall.
I currently have a Nextel Cell and I was considering changing that phone to Cingular and adding another to the mix since my contract w/ Nextel is up.
Anyone with any advice on this line of thought?
And how do I start? ...who are Cingular's partners?

It is not clear how these questions directly tie into "Miles"Buzz. I'll move it to Travel Technology.

I wasn't clear about the fact that I am interested in achieving the most MILES in such a move.
Well, it was a starting point for me.

I think the best you'll do for miles with Cingular is to charge your monthly bill on you miles credit card of choice. I have Cingular and that is what I do. I am happy with the Cingular service which in the rural area I live in is much better than Nextel and T-Mobile.

You get 5000 - 10000 miles with Continental for Cingular phones (miles dependant on the plan you choose) - you have to buy the phone online from Cingular directly to get the miles (link is available through continental.com).
