Is it possible to buy a phone from another company then switch? like say i wanted the T Moblie SideKick 3 but i have Cingular. Can i switch the t moblie phone to cingular, so i can still use cingular? Someone told me that if you buy the phone full price, you can switch to a different company. Is that true?

If you unlock the Sidekick you can use it on Cingular, but only as a phone. Cingular won't support the sidekick features (Im, Internet, etc.) because Cingular is on a different data network than T-Mobile.

As of right now, Cingular doesn't support the Sidekick. T-Mobile is the only one at the time.

no, they have different circuit boards designed for different towers..in LIMITED instances you can transfer from gsm to gsm company but its an uphill battle
