    Cell phone help

    Ok I want to get a new phone and really like the lg chocolate. I'm kinda a newbie when it comes to this stuff but the chocolate is a verzion phone. I do not have verizon I have cingular/at&t so how do I go about getting a chocolate for cingular? Sorry for the dumb question but like I said I'm a newbie to this. Any help would be great.

    You cant. The chocolate is a CDMA phone and Cingular uses GSM. The phones are exclusive to the service.

    Cingular uses GSM for 2G technology and also WCDMA (from Qualcomm) for 3G high speed technology. But you are correct about the phone is exclusive for verizon. T-mobile uses GSM/WCDMA too.

    You need to find out who has the best signal in your area. Verizon, cingular....etc. The phone will only work as good as the network is on. Here in San Diego everyone rates Verizon as the best carrier. Least amount of dropped calls, but they are also the most expensive.
