Cingular has unlocked phones for me in the past, and YES they do work on T-Mobile and any other carrier that uses GSM. That's the great thing about the GSM networks.. You might have an IMEI stored with your account at Cingular, but I can put my wifes SIM in my phone, or my SIM in any unlocked phone and still register on the network and get my calls. Do it all the time.
When they say locked in a GSM context they are talking about which providers SIMS will work in the phone. If the phone is unlocked, you will be able to put any sim into the phone and have it register on any GSM network in the world that the phone has the correct band for. Most modern phones can be unlocked with a code, and cingular has given me the unlock code for my phone in the past. You just have to have a Cingular account to get the code.. (I happen to like their service, even internationally.)
We at PDXcolo.net use User-mode Linux to provide virtual colocated hosting. We offer a range of plans from 64MB of RAM through 512MB, with disk space starting at 4GB and bandwidth starting at 30GB/month. Plans start at $20/mo, with additional bandwidth at $1.50/GB and disk at $1/GB.
We unlike some other providers have a very open TOS/AUP allowing you to do anything you would like that is legal and that doesn't include SPAM
I have a bluetooth headset for my Cell.. It's kind of unique in the US, but it sure makes driving with the phone nice.
I just leave my phone in my laptop bag, and put on the headset, use the voice rec. to dial.
Since they are sudgesting that you need to license the SCO IP in order to run Linux which you either purchased or downloaded.... I think they need to prove their claims. They are saying that they will likely sue if you do not. So, file your lawsuit, and subpoena the infringing code to make them prove their license requirement...
If everyone did this, or at least one in each state.. someone is likely to win through the system.
again IANAL, so I have no idea if this will work or not.
However M$ doesn't have a good history of releasing any source code without strings. So it's very doubtful that anything they would release would go out under the GPL..
However, GPL code in Windows is another thing.. since they don't release their source no one would ever know..............

ok, so now it's time to file your lawsuit.
IANAL so I don't know if this would work or not.

Yes, Be careful..
