Bad News for OnStar customers

"We at OnStar sincerely regret that we will not be able to provide OnStar service to vehicles with analog equipment after December 31, 2007. All OnStar subscribers affected by this change will receive a letter from OnStar that outlines how this affects their service."

http://www.onstar.com/us_english/jsp...transition.jsp

You can check your VIN from the above link and find out if this transition impacts your OnStar service. But here the Article from AP regarding this issue.

I'm sure there are some people who don't know that beginning January 1, 2008, OnStar service in the United States and Canada will be available only through vehicles that are capable of operating on the digital cellular network.

There are some folks who have no idea about any of this and if they have analog service surprise..........

So the real deal is that it may be old news to some it is news though and that's why the AP article was dated today.

No, there aren't because everybody (including me) lost service in December 2006.

But I'll forgive you

So your saying the "Revised notice dated January 16, 2007" posted on the OnStar site has no relevance?
