Re: How Long? (AT&T - Cingular)

At some point, if you want to continue having wireless telephone service, you will have to either migrate to cingular or port your number to a different carrier.

Well, here is the reason I asked.

I'm on a business account and found out from a co-worker that there is
a phone number we can call to get equipment upgrades, so I called.

I wanted to upgrade my phone to the Moto V3 but when I was hesitant
when they could only give me a silver one, the gal begin to tell me
that the day is going to come when the old AT&T network was going to
be eliminated and at some point we would need to migrate over to the
Cingular side.

Do you think she was wrong? (I opted to stay with what I have for the
time being)
