Hey Again,

So, I have a question.  Now, if I were to buy a phone off line along
with accessible technology to goe with it how could I get the phone
service?  Would I just bring the phone to whoever provides the service
and they hook it up?  I am looking into the Nokia n82 & possibly AT&T,
but before I actually did it I wanted to ask again since I don't know.

Thanks as always for all your help with my many questions=)
