Wow who lit the fire under Cing’s ass to get the 3G stuff going? Dear old pink Tmo is looking worse and worse…

I think the Verizon/Sprint EVDO coverage and associated commercials have forced Cingular to accelerate their 3G rollout.

As soon as I see more coverage in my area, I definitely plan on picking up a 3G phone.

Now if Cingular could only do something about that damn buzzing in speakers around your phone…

The buzzing in your speakers is GSM related. It goes away when you use a UMTS phone; WCDMA doesn’t use those awful EM pulses.

That buzzing around your phone is what they call the Madd Seeg of Deth, otherwise it means a low freq and high freq GSM signal is being combined, it means you will have a very strong and clear signal. It is a good thing, lol.

According to the Nokia website AND Nokia technical support back east, this phone has *not* “cleared the FCC process” yet.

When this phone is finally available, and I hope it IS real…I will be among the first to pounce…

Peter, in fact this phone has cleared the FCC process and did so November 1st. All you need to do make a quick stop to http://darlamack.blogs.com/darlamack/2006/11/nokia_n75_fcc_a.html and click on the FCC link. You can even read the user manual to pass the time :-)

I too am ready to pounce on this phone, as I have been waiting for a 3g capable quad band smartphone from nokia for what feels like ages. Let’s hope it comes out this month on the 15th instead of reports of January of 07 like some have been saying. Keep your fingers crossed!

Cheers,
Kev
