Does anyone know a good source for an M20 in the US? Or,  
alternatively, something functionally identical? I'm willing to  
import it, so long as it'd work on our Cingular GSM network. I'm  
fairly confident in my ability to convince our Cingular rep to let us  
put one of their SIM cards in it, etc.

Cheers,
