THEN TODAY, I READ THIS THREAD!!!! UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!

I bought the Cingular plan with no BB services. I just have basic, basic service. This all happened 2 days ago. When I move again .... hahahahahaha... to Tmo, how will this work? Does the 2nd non-BB phone even matter? It's all about the BB and the plan, right? I'm going to contact Adam asap!!! Will Cingular nail me to the wall with fees?

I'm just a newbie, apparently learning the hard way....
I'm no Cingular expert but I htink your contract allows you to cancel within a certain number of days and either return the phone(s) or pay full retail. Either way, it may be cheaper than cancelling and paying the termination fee. If I were you I'd give them the phones back and then either wait for TMo to come out with the 8700t or buy an unlocked one on eBay. I went the eBay route and couldn't be happier. As for your wife's phone, activate your BB on TMo then walk into a TMo store and tell them you want to add a family plan - they'll sell you a subsidized phone just like Cingular did.
