Without research. I originally had Nynex, but I was upset about the way they changed my service agreement, so I switched to Cellular One. I was never McCaw or AT&T Wireless. Certainly, McCaw was acquired by AT&T and became AT&T Wireless. But much of Cellular One was owned by Southwestern Bell, and that became Cingular when Bell South combined operations with SBC. -- -- Jerry Feldman <[hidden email]> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
