I have the Motorola v551 with cingular and it is EDGE compatable along with its upgrade the v557. The v557 is $149 with a $50 rebate (probably for new subscribers only).

Also while looking at the site the Samsung d357 ($119 with $50 rebate) also lists that it is edge compatable.

It wasn't clear if it was just a bad batch of phones or what, but I'm sending it back.

Maybe I'll try the 6021 instead. Any recommendations on the best place to buy one in the US?
I don't know about the 6230i, but the 6230 works fine.

I have a Nokia 6021 and my wife a Nokia 6230i and both work with the 770.

Hmm. Must have been a bad batch then.

I think I'm going to go with the Nokia 6682. It's a bit larger, but it has all the calendars and alarms the 770 lacks. With any luck someone will make a PIM for the 770 that can push meeting alarms to phones.

My 6230 works fine. It did take a small change in the cingular connection script included with the 770.

Sorry to hijack the thread...

But I can't help but chuckle everytime I see a post by you (eye.surgeon) as I always think you stand to make good money with devices like the 770 becoming so popular.

Now we resume your previously scheduled cellphone discussion ...

Does the BT transmit the EDGE speeds on the 6230?

I'm also looking for a good phone with BT (doesn't even need to be EDGE), but I'm more concerned about the monthly costs for a data plan. Can anyone chime in with their data plan (USA only) costs per month, and if they have an unlimited plan?

I'm mostly going to be using the phone for data so voice minutes aren't interesting to me. I'd also be very curious to know if anyone has gotten bitten by fines/outrageous charges for using their phone as a BT DUN device. I've never been able to get a straight answer out of the sales droids about what plan will actually allow pairing, short of going for the $80/month PC connectivity plans.

I'm currently using a Razr with TMobile. I have the unlimited data plan @ $19.99 per month. I don't know if this is still offered.
