Answer 2

Currently, OnStar relies on the analog and digital cellular networks. We want to make you aware of the FCC ruling, and assure you that if you have an analog-only system, it will be functional until January 1, 2008.

Beginning January 1, 2008, however, OnStar services in the U.S. and Canada will be available only through equipment that operates on the digital network. OnStar subscribers with affected equipment will be contacted with additional information well in advance of January 1, 2008.
