Oh just so yall folks know, the Nokia E62 is coming out at Cingular next friday September 29th for $149.



Downside is it only has EDGE data speeds, and no WiFi. Cingular isn't really trying to sell UMTS devices yet because they only have their UMTS network launched in a select few markets with limited coverage areas. It's turned on, at least a little bit, in Boston, NYC, Philly, Baltimore, DC, Charlotte, Houston, Dallas, Austin, Chicago, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Vegas, Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, San Diego, San Francisco, and San Jose. They're building it out putting sites up like crazy but because it's a lot more involved than upgrading a CDMA network to EVDO, the coverage isn't going to match what Verizon and Sprint have with EVDO which is already pretty widespread.

But...at least Cingular has started workin on it, T-Mobile ain't built jack shit for UMTS yet.
