Maybe not...Cingular is switching everything to 310-410. ATTWS at 310-380, or
Cingular Blue, is not yet part of the "Cingular Network", even though Cingular owns
it, it is still a separate network.
It's kind of like Ford owning Volvo. Even though each still has a separate network
of dealerships and repair shops, they are still separate. Cingular just dropped the
ATTWS name, but still has a separate network. Some parts of ATTWS have been
"swapped" or sold off, some parts have been integrated into the Cingular network,
and some parts are awaiting integration.
