Common Cell Phone Questions

Can you recommend a compatible phone? Which model should I get?
Any Bluetooth cell phone released in the last two years should work fine. The phone must support the Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile (HSP), only a few older Bluetooth phones do not.  To support the Advanced Voice Control Upgrade Package the phone must be a Windows Mobile 5.0 or newer smart phone.

Where do I buy my cell phone and which carrier should I use?
You can purchase your cell phone anywhere you would normally.  We will soon be able to assist you in signing up for new service receiving a discounted phone with any of the major carriers, but the paperwork is not yet completed.
