It all depends on your location, but since July I have noticed a steady increase in the speed and range of cingular's high speed network.

Would you like to mention the configuration setting that you use to access Cingular's 3G HSDPA ? I say this because right now I am on T-Mobile Plan (with a Nokia 3650 and am done with the contract ).
I can switch over to Cingular anytime ( I have a Nokia 6682 also). What Service Plan do you have ?

19.99 a month medianet unlimited plan on cingular.
Tethering is not explicitly allowed, you are at your own risk, and the settings are available all over with a google search.

I've hit 1 Mbps with the HSDPA on cingular. With a BT Pan connect, I get around 300kbps on the 770 tethered to a Samsung Blackjack.

Ack for the recommendation of Nokia 6150. It has the same charger as 770, so there is one object less to carry around. But phone recommendations are very much operator and plan specific. It's very hard to give a "universally best" phone. But for general n770 friendly phone, look out for the following features(in decreasing order of imporatnce):
Nokia 6150 has all of those but rs-mmc. My operator supports HSPDA, but with very limited coverage, so it doesn't really matter it isn't supported by 6150.
- Supports the best speed your operator has
- has bluetooth
- how good it looks and feels in your hand
- price
- does it use same Nokia charger as 770
- does it use rs-mmc cards like 770?

I use the Nokia N80. It works great, although Cingular's data service is slooooow. Kinda like using a 56k modem at best.

I have it working with my new LG 8600 on Verizon. I did have to hack a file in the phone to allow it to teather, though. Pertty cool.
