damn , i was looking into the $20 media thing and planning on getting it...boo urns.
edit:
so the difference between the Media unlimited and the Data unlimted (besides about 45 dollars) is that data has SMS and some other stuff?
they are bound to that contract with you - they will grandfather that plan in for you -- so you still pay the 19.99 even though they have changed it for everyone else. pretty sure about that - that's how it works with all the minute plans - they keep changing them and i had my plan and price not change even though the plan actually didn't exist any more.Originally Posted by antimatter
hope it helps

I sell cell phones, not cingular (Sprint and Verizon) but I know a Cingular guy (I'm looking to switch to Cingular) and this is how I understand it...
The Data Connect plan gives you EDGE and data compression, boosting your speeds over standard GPRS. (GPRS is 2G, EDGE is 2.5G, UMTS is 3G).
edit: OH, and as I understand it the entire network has at least GPRS, but most of the network has EDGE overlay, at least in my area anyway. UMTS is available in a few major metro areas (the best thing AT&T ever did, prior to the merger).
edit2: OH, and the 19.99 MEdia Works plan is gone now. Thanks, cingular!
Sorry to bring up really old thread. I can now divulge info on new Cingular data plan. $24.99 UNL media net is now $19.99.
Good luck to you all!

Sorry to bring up an old thread, are you you kiddin Raf?? That's great info. My head has been spinning for a while now trying to figure out the best way to get decent internet access for my car. This is definitely a consideration, as soon as I figure out how it all works . . .
Look at this post in this thread! You will find the setting that you need there.
