It is not just the phone. Or the service. Old ATTWS TDMA phones did it
too. It is just the frequency range, and poorly shielded speaker cables.

Moving the phone away from the computer helps.

It's normal for your phone to do this. Your cell phone is a transmitter,
your speakers are picking up the RF from the transmitter. Just before mine
rings, it will cause interference with my computer speakers, I like it
because I know my phone's gonna ring. Also I'm in a weak signal area and I
can hear it "looking" for the ATTWS tower, which has a stronger signal.

Most GSM phones will cause static on electronics. I have alot of customers
ask me the same question. My answer, dont set the phone that close to your
speakers, or cordless phone. I know that sounds like a bad answer. But that
is the only answer I have found in 2 and a half years selling cingular.
The first time I ran into this problem was on my Samsung X427. I thought it
was funny tho, i would her a pulesating static noise out of my tv. And i
would tell my friends that my phone was going to ring. They would laugh. I
won alot of bets that way. LOL
