Analog cell phones are going away on Valentine's Day 2008. http://dialzero.blogspot.com/2007/06/analog-cellphone-service-to-end-after.html The FCC does not require that analog service be turned off. Only that carriers are not required to continue analog service past that date. A good number of rural areas will probably continue to use Analog cellualr service for a few years after that. True. Analog will probably dribble along for quite a while. ... I seriously doubt it. All the carrier people I know are chomping at the bit to turn it off, as noted in public statements. He said dribble, and that would be true for rural areas, as there is no big push to change much out in the rural areas. -- Best regards, FAQ FOR CINGULAR WIRELESS: John Navas http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cingular_Wireless_FAQ |
