The Boy Genius Report has a post up with a list of Cingular’s 3G UMTS / HSDPA coverage areas - listing major markets by city.

So if you’re wondering whether your city or town is covered yet, this is a good starting point - albeit one that is presumably changing quickly as new coverage areas are added.

The number of cities / markets covered is not huge yet - hopefully that will change rapidly.

For all the details check the BGR post HERE

Verizon Will Offer Free Ringtones on New Years Eve

Verizon customers will be allowed to download a free ringtone from their phone on NYE. Just text "Tone" to the number 2007 and they’ll send you instructions on how to get your freebie ringtone.

Nice gesture from Verizon.  Gizmodo also has some choice - and spot-on - comments on the nature of the current VZW Top 10 ringtones. But I suppose you can avoid those and find something tolerable to use.

See the Gizmodo piece HERE for more details …
