I think it would be a good idea to collect/post the programming
information with regards to various cell phones programming. My
interest is from the viewpoint that the phones probably have a lot of
capabilities that advanced users may wish to enable, but the
dealer/service provider has no interest in turning on. At least being
*aware* of the capabilities might help one pursuade the dealer to turn
on that feature, or let the buyer make a more-informed purchase
decision. The decision to buy which unit would be influenced by what
features they all have.
 
I have a personal interest since in the next 60 days I will be buying
"something". Even with the possible advent of digital technology, I
need something now not later.
