Glad to hear your P900 doing just fine & you got a great signal in your area.
Dropped calls means barely or no signal at all, it could be bogus but I get a full bars on areas that T-mobile don't have signal at all. Don't get me wrong I have T-Mobile service too.
I needed a wider coverage coz I used back-roads occasionally on my commute. Cingular covers even on the hillside(cow tracks) t-mobile don't, coz I-80 corridor is a parking lot during the commute hours. You will never know when a good signal you needed the most!
Wow, P990 that's a very pricy active synch.

Wireless X-Ray for Docs On The Go
New System Provides Mobile Access to Medical Imaging Systems From Smartphones and Handheld Devices.
The next time your doctor reviews your X-rays don't be alarmed if he looks at his hand instead of a wall-mounted display. Chances are he is just using a new system that gives him the ability to see your images on his smartphone or PDA instead of a standard radiography display.
ICIS PocketPACS, the newest member of healthcare software developer Global Care Quest, Inc.'s Integrated Clinical Information System (ICIS) line up, is an advanced viewing application that can take images from virtually any Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) and send it to a handheld device or mobile smartphone via wireless Internet or high-speed cellular phone network. The system displays and manipulates chest X-rays, bone X-rays, CT scans, MRI scans, and most other medical imaging modalities.
"Talk to nearly any doctor today and he's going to tell you he's a highly mobile professional," said GCQ chief executive Cleve Adams. "He's on the road, in the office, in the hospital. Even when he's in one location he's always moving. As such, it's important that his patient information be at his fingertips no matter where he is. ICIS PocketPACS delivers that kind of mobility to medical imaging."
Beyond simple image display, ICIS PocketPACS offers a number of advanced viewing functions including zoom, pan, multi-slice scrolling, Cine mode, window-level contrast adjustments, and Image inversion and rotation. The system will display all PACS images at the maximum screen size and image resolution of which the handheld device is capable. In most situations ICIS PocketPACS displays diagnostic quality images suitable for assessment and patient triaging.
ICIS PocketPACS integrates with nearly every PACS or DICOM-capable system, including those from Kodak, GE Healthcare, and Agfa, as well as many others. It can also be used as part of the complete ICIS Mobile solution that provides real time access to electronic medical records, bedside monitoring equipment, physician's notes, labs and more.
"GCQ's mission is to deliver technology that removes the geographical barriers between physician, hospitals, and their patients," Adams said. "ICIS PocketPACS is another step toward delivering universal access to the critical patient information doctors need whenever and wherever they need it."
ICIS PocketPACS will be available in October 2006.

Cingular Bring 3G Wireless Broadband to San Antonio
Mobile Broadband Services Transform Mission City Into Metropolitan Hot Spot.
Cingular Wireless today launched its super-charged wireless network in San Antonio, capable of providing customers with high-speed access to voice or data information in a world that has gone mobile.
Cingular's 3G network is available in 54 communities nearby the major markets of Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Gary (Ind.), Las Vegas, Phoenix, Portland (Ore.), Salt Lake City, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose (Calif.), Seattle, Tacoma (Wash.) and Washington D.C. The company will expand its 3G network coverage area to most major markets by the end of 2006.
The Cingular 3G network uses HSDPA/UMTS (High Speed Downlink Packet Access/Universal Mobile Telephone System) technology. This technology makes it possible for people to enjoy a wide variety of wireless content. HSDPA/UMTS gives Cingular the advantage of offering simultaneous voice and data services to customers and is based on the global standard for wireless communications - GSM. For businesses and consumers, this means more feature- rich services and content, and for Cingular, a more economical method for carrying traffic and more efficient use of spectrum.
Customers who want to watch video highlights of last night's Astros game, or get a preview of HBO's Entourage series, can see it all – and more — by signing up for Cingular Video. Cingular Video is an on-demand streaming video service with a large selection of popular mobile content that can be viewed on 3G-capable Cingular phones.

That's their target point (start deploying) to join the high-speed community. I think it's worth the wait for T-Mobile's deployment, perhaps a better & wider spectrum of 3G (or 4G or WiMax capability) Backbone equipments will come up in the horizon.

Sure you will and don't loss hope.
Hopefully with the P990 will iron out the previous costly experienced of some P series users.

It's the 3G issue with UMTS 2100 being international, while Cingular rides the UMTS 1900 bus. That sucks.

That's the drawback; at present anything within that frequency is allocated for satellite phone or military bandwidth. The FCC has made reasonable promises to free up additional spectrum in the 2100 MHz band. Probably that's the reason why T-Mobile is waiting until next year for that vanwagon.

Medical Hi-Tech News
VeriChip Corporation announced that Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey, the largest health insurer in the state, has agreed to a two-year pilot program of VeriChip's VeriMed Patient Identification System in conjunction with Hackensack University Medical Center and its physicians. In this new test program, participating patients suffering from chronic diseases would be provided with the VeriChip implantable microchip, to provide emergency room staff easy access to those patients' medical information, as well as to help avoid costly or serious medical errors.
Under this trial, participating Horizon BCBSNJ members with chronic illnesses will receive VeriChip's FDA-approved, human-implantable Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) microchips inserted just under the skin of their right tricep. Each patient's unique 16-digit identifier found within the microchip will then tie into their individual electronic medical record stored within the VeriMed Patient Registry accessible by Hackensack University Medical Center's physicians. Each record will contain vital information related to the patient's condition, family contacts, lab test data, and pharmacy records helping make the difference between life and death during an emergency.
"This two-year collaboration is a milestone for VeriMed and for our implantable identification technology marking the first time a health insurer has sponsored such a program," stated Kevin McLaughlin, Chief Executive Officer, VeriChip Corporation.
For more information on VeriMed, please contact 1-800-970-CHIP or email
