IT&E ANNOUNCES GUAM'S
FIRST AND ONLY NATIONWIDE
DIGITAL PCS ROAMING SERVICE
In
an historic first for Guam, IT&E announces the island’s
first and only Digital PCS Nationwide Roaming Service. IT&E
Wireless Digital PCS customers can now be reached, while
traveling in the U.S. mainland and Hawaii just by dialing
their 7-digit
PCS phone number.
IT&E Wireless Digital PCS customers
can now take their IT&E Digital PCS phones to the U.S.
mainland and Hawaii to make and receive calls from virtually
any domestic location,
and they can receive calls from almost anywhere in the world.
Tests are already in progress for calls to international
locations while roaming. This service will be available very
shortly.
“
IT&E has partnered with several PCS providers throughout
the United States to make this breakthrough service possible,” said
IT&E President John M. Borlas. “We’ve ensured
that our customers can use their IT&E Wireless Digital
PCS phones to stay connected virtually anywhere in the mainland
and Hawaii. Likewise, CDMA digital PCS subscribers from the
U.S. mainland can travel to Guam and keep in touch while
using their PCS phones through IT&E’s all digital
network. IT&E is proud to be a pioneer in this field
and to make it all possible.”
A major partner in IT&E’s
roaming network is Sprint PCS, which operates the largest
all-digital, all-PCS nationwide
wireless network in the United States. Sprint PCS has a licensed
PCS coverage of nearly 270 million people nationwide. Sprint
PCS and several other domestic wireless PCS partners ensure
a solid calling coverage for IT&E’s PCS subscribers
who use their IT&E Digital PCS phones in the U.S. mainland.
IT&E’s nationwide roaming service
is available to all IT&E Wireless Digital PCS customers.
Before they travel, customers should call 456-ROAM to verify
if their
Digital PCS
phone is programmed for roaming capability.
