p.s. due to the way the network works, you have 2 phone numbers technically. your CTN (phone number) and your MSID (the number the network uses to track your phone number. due to porting into and out of different carriers these may be different or they may be the same if you have had your phone number for a long time or if no one has used the phone number ever.

I just called and talked with data technical services because I'm not getting through with my MSID, and they said that the PPP user id should be your
MSID@uscc.net, and the password should definitely be just your MSID by itself. Granted, US Cellular is thinking about making android phones premium devices, and not smart phones, which would be awesome. but thats beside the point.
Also, an update for everyone who actually has US Cellular. Android devices are on their way, they will be launching in July supposedly. Just a heads up for you all. I'm sticking with winmo, because then i get the best of both worlds =P
attached is what i see when i pull up an account. thats my phone number, my msid, and my serial number and device. ive blocked everything else out because I want to protect my company and myself. but just to give you an idea of what info is attached to the account. so if other people are using their hex esn and such? then i am wayyyyyy off base, and its a programming thing with the android programming.
