I appreciate everyone's replies... I have done all of the suggestions mentioned. We were told that Cingular's international coverage, had surpassed Tmobile's. Hence the trial. I have international bb's customers reguarily, not just with blackberries, we use a variety of comms equipment, from bb's to thuraya's to satelite phones, as I support USAID and the Dept of State. Their coverage just does not rate to Tmobile's.

and yes, my thumbs hurt...
