AT&T cell phones should more properly be labeled Cingular phones,
since Cingular and AT&T Wireless merged in the fall of 2004. The
merger was effected to help these two wireless providers take on
the market share owned by Verizon Wireless. Cell phones available
to Cingular Wireless subscribers range in price from $0 (via mail-in
rebates) to approximately $500.
What sort of features can you expect from an ATT cell phone?
For music junkies, new models offer increased storage capacity so
your cell phone can double as an MP3 player. Some models allow you
to store up to 100 songs, so you can rock out while you're in line
at the DMV. Check the speaker quality if you want to play music
on your phone--not all models are optimized for stereo-quality sound.
Users who need their phones to keep them organized and on track
can check out the latest mobile phone/PDA combos. Email and web
access are important to businessmen and businesswomen on the go,
whether they are checking stock prices in an airport or need to
view the latest meeting schedule while on an investment roadshow
on the East Coast. Cingular's phones can provide you with text messaging,
Bluetooth compatibility, and PDA synchronicity. Wi-fi capabilities
are also available on top-of-the-line models.
The average user who doesn't need the bells and whistles or a
high storage capacity for media will find a range of options to
choose from, as well. Even the most basic of models usually includes
instant messaging capabilities, which work well for families on
the go. These less expensive phones are particularly useful for
parents who aren't crazy about the idea of giving their teens phones
that are worth several hundred dollars. Messaging, polyphonic ringtones,
and camera phone functionalities are available on phones that are
under $100.
