accessible phones and networks

[David Poehlman]

did they reduce the list?  they used to have 5 and I had heard they were 
going to ad more.

I have a pantek duo never heard of a pantek trio.  I love bo that and the 
nokia N75 that I have.  The pantek is more complex but both are quite 
accessible.  You might go to:

and checkout their knowledge base though it doesn't have much in it now, it 
is growing all the time.

Hi, all!  So, here's the deal.  Yes, it's true that AT&T offers 3 phones
that they will install mobilespeak on.  They are the Nokia N75, the Motorola
Q, and the Pantek Trio.  So, now my question is, even before I go and have a
looksee at all of these, what has been anyone's experience with any of these
phones and with mobilespeak?  Thanks for any feedback as I continue on my
gathering of info!  Marcy
