mpx200 vs220

[Guest pigpaw3]

Looking for advice. We have 2 MPx200s (ATT sim cards) with Cingular. Their getting old and one screen

has gone blank. Need two new phones and are considering 2 MPx 220s as we loved our 200s. Ebay has unlocked new 220s for $140 ea which I think is great. Questions are will the unlocked work with ATT cards

as we dont want to get a Cingular plan, and is the MPx220 really that good? We had some issues with the 200s

such as battery life, weak signal when it should have been good, cracks on plastic parts without impact, and not being able to use it as a dialup modem without paying Cingular a boatload of money(modem using minutes). Sorry for the long post, but this is an important issue, not for the money but we dont want to be stuck with a crappy phone fgor the next few years. Thanks to all very much. Mike and Lora

I like the MPX220 and they should work on AT&T as long as it's a GSM signal.

I am not in an AT&T area and so can not test for you.

The only downside as such is the MPX220 ig getting rather old now so it may be worth looking at one of the newer sedvice if funds allow.
