Motorola A630

I'll be getting my phone soon in the mail. I'm not really looking for a PDA phone but would love to be able to put someone's contact info in for business purposes. ( email, company address, etc. )

Is there a way to add some sort of software on it?

So if you unlock the t-mobile phone version, what will be the features on there with the Cingular sim card in there? Would it be worth unlocking, or should i wait and take the Cingular version which will be out in probably another 5 month's.

I hate to break everyone's hearts, but the new A630 (T-mobile Version) is locked.... That can be undone as I did it tonight, but there is another problem. You can't make any new websessions or mms sessions at all PERIOD.NOT EVEN EDIT THE ONES THAT ARE THERE. T-mobile has taken that part out. Sounds to me like T-mobile may know that Cingular isn't going to carry it, so they decided to remove any way of changing the browser and mms settings. Or the other reason is T-Mobile realizes they are losing millions yearly to dealers trans shipping phones. Maybe all of their phones will be coming out this way to counter that??? All I know is with the unlocked T-Mobile version I could make a call and send/receive sms fine. I do know that I did like the T...

I keep hereing that cingular isnt going to be carrying the motorola A630 (which would be a stupid move) from some people and that they will have it out soon from others. I dont know who to believe so im just going to ask:
is there and unlocked motorola A630 (do they sell them straight from motorola?)

My local T-Mobile store got the A630 in today. I picked it up after work. First impressions: it's tiny but with some pratice I am getting faster on the keyboard, lots of built-in ringtones, email and sms work as expected and it comes with some interesting games.

This looks alot like an Ogo, but since this merger I can't find any pictures on the ATTWS site. Is the Ogo made by Motorola?

cingular's been mailing out a metric ton of information and advertising about their services and such since the merger... the magazine sized brochure i got today had a full page spread on the A630. that doesn't sound like cancellation to me. hurrah!

I AM AN AT&T WIRELESS CUSTOMER, BECAUSE OF THE MERGER DO I HAVE ACCSESS TO CINGULAR PHONES?

Look on T-Mobile's website, the phone will be released on the dotcom Nov. 19, the phone will be in stores Nov. 21, and the upgrades from your exsisting phone can be done on Nov. 23. I am getting mine tomorrow.

I played with the live demo in our store today...

It's a nice device. I'm getting addicted to the built-in crossword puzzle game. I also like the fact that on the menu, there is a seperate icon for emails from "messages" (texts).

The camera is SHARP. It's more crisp than the V600 granted they have similar interfaces.

Speakerphone is loud and clear.

Hidden keyboard is very thumb friendly.

Hmm... I might turn in my V600 for this bad boy since I do a lot of text and email.

any questions, feel free to ask.

I ordered the phone from Amazon a couple of months ago and was notified last week that it was canceled. I was so disappointed because I was supposed to have received last week.

Well, Amazon.com has the phone on again at their website with still the same, great deal at $99 ( after $200 mail in rebate )

But I heard the demand is so high so you better get on the website real quick. Because I know they will run out again.

Ive also noticed for awhile hat you can see new phones cingular is getting by checking out the ringtones. They have had a630 ringtones since the summer and as of now the phone is still up ther. Just lettin you all know this because the phone must be coming to cingular...how soon?....who knows because cingular lies and pushes back far too much

I know the phone isnt out for the cingular customers, but for anyone that has it, can you give us a heads up on what to expect on: how it runs, the reception and the graphics along with the mp3 sounding ringtones. I know i won't probably see it but at least i can dream about your seein, cause i want the phone really bad, cause i wanna show it to all my friends. Post pictures or something on a link so we can see your phone so i know it exist.

👿 Man now they saying three hundred different things and its not adding up. to get some clarification, can someone verify the prices and the due date of the phone. 1st and for most the phone is listed for about 300.00 by t-mobile, but for cingular is it the same? Secondly the due date is expected for last week of November and the first week of December. Once again if someone can inquire the phone for cingular anytime soon let me know so we can talk some cash.

Which version will be better T-Mobile or Cingular's?

Anybody know where I can get some cool looking carrying casesetc. for this phone?

Since mid-summer everyones been saying the phone should be here by September then it was Ocotober then it was "definitely" mid November. It doesn't sound like ANYONE knows when this thing is coming. If anyone happens to read this who really has some sort of concrete idea of when this phone will be released to the public please let me know becasue i feel like i've been wasting my time the last 4 months waiting for this frickin' thing!

I work in the music industry and my boss just got one of these today to take to a set for a video we are shooting and man this phone is hot! I got to hold it and play arond with it and I was amazed by how small it is! But look we are all at the mercy of these companys and all we can really do it wait...... I WANT ONE NOW!

After spending about two weeks trying to get a hold of a rep at Motorola ( I contacted the PR and Marketing folks at the corporate headquarters office at Schamburg, Illinois ) and I FINALLY got a hold of a rep at Motorola. She was very candid with me and probably told me way too much info. I asked her point blank "Is it true the delay of the a630 is due to the problems with the camera" and she said, "we are still working out the kinks on the a630 phone" which tells me the rumors are probably true.

She also said the phone will NOT be out this year, best hope is for early next year. I am so disappointed, I ordered my phone over two months ago from Amazon and was notified last week that my ordered was canceled.

As you all know, the phon...
