Re: Increase speeds and volume; but cut costs

That is not the point.

The point is you don't advertise one thing and provide another. AOL got hit with it when they went to the "unlimited" model.

Here is, more than likely, what happened. Verizon thought about wireless internet access and came up with the idea to sell their cards and service. When they put a price point on it, they thought they would make money. They probably never took into account the amount of traffic or the amount of data people would be pushing.

This shows either the extreme naivety or the complete lack of respect companies have for their customers.
