Now we have word on an estimated time frame as well as some bad news. I'll give you the goods first – the 750 has been scheduled for a Q4 release. I say scheduled loosely since I doubt Cingular will come through with this but at least if its delayed it can't be that far off. The bad news is that instead of getting the download speeds of HSDPA we are going to have to settle for just plain UMTS."</i><br /><br />This is a rumor, so take it with a grain of salt, but it looks like the Cingular 750 will ship with the same limitation as the Vodafone unit. It's a little disappointing to see this, but as long as they eventually release an update, I don't think it's a deal-killer. After all, <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=52804">we already know</a> the 750 is capable of HSDPA, even if the update to turn it on isn't available yet.

I smell failure.

I hope to see this coming in dec. My hw6515 is on its last leg and need to makes some moves this month.

3G works for me - for now... Plus the hacks I have seen for the 750 would be fine in my book (Until Cingular has a "FREE" update)
