Mistake to keep it?
I'm new to cingular. I started off w/ the Treo 650, froze up and rebooted itself constantly, not worth the trouble. switched to the 6682 and are having problems with it including poor reception ( worse than sons Razr V3 and wifes SE 710a) The thing is... I really like this phone. my 30 days are almost up, wife switched from her 6682 to SE 710. Am I making a mistake not switching or will these problems be fixed including reception. thanks for your .02

if it were me I would not keep it, although not many folks would agree with me...

Most folks have said that the reception on the 6682 is excellent. Could you have a hardware problem?
In my case, the 6682 reception is excellent. It picks up a signal much, much better than my previous phone (Nokia 3120) and much better than my colleagues. I no longer have to walk to the window to make/take a call; my colleagues with Cingular have to walk to the window.

could be hardware, but my wifes 6682 was no better than mine. again my sons Razr v3 and wifes new SE 710a are much better. could it be cingular in my area? North central FL

I'm in NC, but have better than expected reception going through VA (I-77) and WV (Turnpike) when I wasn't deep in a valley.

the reception isnt bad enough thats its a deal breaker, I was just wondering if a new firmware comes out will it get as good as the other phones and if I keep this will I be stuck with an orphan if they dont fix it? This is my first nokia and my first symbian phone, I really like it I just want it to work right. as far as the reception, its wierd. If I put all three phones togeather, the moto and se might be a solid 3 or 4 bars and the 6682 will be bouncing between 2 or 3 and no signal
...
let me restate that. the example I mentioned is in my house in the country. most places, I get a signal, its just never as good as the other 2 phones and its never a solid signal. its always bouncing. my biggest problem with the phone is it freezing up sometimes and loosing the call logs

my 6682 has better reception than my old s710a...my s710a's RF sucked big time..my 6682 has bars where my 710a didnt plus i get better and clearer connections. but again i always had better RF with nokias
...
I have no experiance with it myself, but see the posts in the "latest sim 32 saga" below .. they say they are getting better reception as well.
