Existing TDMA customers are all getting letters. These letter are from
Cingular, not some marketing company. They are given two options as a
minimum; 1)Keep things like they are, knowing that sometime within a year,
TDMA/AMPS service will be going the way of the dinosaur. You will pay 5
bucks extra per month for this privelage. or 2)Get new phone and service,
via upgrade process (new contract term of 1 or 2 years, price of phone
determined by contract length). With this option there is one thing that is
different than a normal upgrade: The 18.00 Upgrade Fee is waived (this is
for ALL TDMA/AMPS customers switching to GSM).

In addition, some customers are being offered the Nokia 6030 for free after
rebate. The Visa Rewards Card mentioned is this rebate. It is a 20.00 gift
card that you get in the mail, as is the standard practice for all rebates
at Cingular at this time. Any other phone can be had for the usual price
offer.

The one issue invovled is that you must change to a current rate plan, which
means minimum of 39.99 per month. Multiple lines can go on Family Talk,
beginning at 59.99 per month for two phones with 550 shared minutes w/
unlimited M2M and 5K NW.Additional lines are 9.99/month w/ up to 4 total on
the account.
