Why even debate?

There are so many other choices in most places in the country why would anyone needing data service use Verizon?

They lied for 4 years and didn't stop until a Judge called them on the carpet.

Now they want pay per byte.

Simply remove them from your selection and go on with life.

PS: Most towns have more choices than just switching to GSM also. Sprint and Alltel are in a lot of places and have decent data plans.
