I bought a Blackberry 7100 from Cingular back in April. In July the wireless email stopped working and the techs at Cingular couldn’t get it going again, so Cingular replaced the phone. Everything went fine until a couple of weeks ago I noticed that the audio kept cutting out as people were talking to me. They could hear me fine, but I was hearing about every other word when they spoke. Today, it quit completely. I can hear nothing at all through my phone.
The phone’s still under warranty, and Cingular’s replacing it, but i’ve got a feeling of foreboding. How long before this replacement stops working too? They can keep replacing it every few months but eventually it will be out of warranty. Cingular won’t trade the phone for something else, so I’ve emailed RIM to see if they’ll help out.
