Re: A Universal Cell Phone? For what its worth, I've never even used Skype, but the PUBLIC airwaves, most of which are auctioned, are subject to regulation, whether you like it or not. Regulations that in this case, I suspect, will eventually include allowing end users to operate any devices with any software ("crippled bluetooth" anyone?) they want, as long as it does not interfere with other users of the PUBLIC network. Same way as I can plug whatever telephone I want into the PUBLIC telephone network. What's the problem with me using a Skype (or any other) device on a PUBLIC network, as long as I pay whatever the standard rate per minute or per call or per MB is on that network? If it's a PRIVATE network, sure they can do what they want, but it's a PUBLIC network. I assume that is Skype's point with taking it to the FCC. | | |

You people had a common carrier and didn't like it. Now you have what you wanted. When will they ever learn? The US fell from 1st to 17th because of leaches. Leaches don't contribute they suck the life.
