Rev A = Simultaneous Voice & Data?

[matty032]

Huh, I was wondering why I couldn't send an email while on the phone. After reading that you could talk, and use 1X data with Rev. A. Thanks for the info.......

For simultaneous voice/data you can either 1) go to a GSM network 2) use WiFi and Cell radios as mentioned or 3) use your own VOIP service through your phone's data connection.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I think I'm going to try and find a SIP client that'll work well on the Vogue to achieve this. That will also mean unlimited minutes/long distance if I can get it working well. I haven't had much success to-date though.
