First of all, I want to thank you for the Cingular FAQ, which gave me the
info I needed to get my VOQ working on the internet, as well as the
tethering instructions for my laptop and PDA. That was a huge help.

As for the Sim upgrade being pushed in Southern CA right now, will they
still work in older phones? I know I probably won't benefit from ENS (hard
to tell, since there seems to be little, if any, documentation I can find on
which phones have it and which don't), but will I have to buy a new phone?

Perhaps I'm too cynical, but I easily imagine Cingular trying to flim flam
me into buying a new phone, perhaps with a 'generous' discount as long as I
sign up for another two years. (old contract was up a couple months ago)

Thanks again.

Thanks.

I've heard of a few people who had Nokia's that wouldn't work with the new
SIM, but that's it.

You won't need a new phone.
