Migrate to Femtocell?

I don't think this would make much business sense since I think they are technically separate companies, but I wonder if they will push people to migrate to their Femtocell service?

Well not really, because the only benefit to Femtocell is the stronger cell signal/reception. You are still using VZW minutes while on Femtocell so for most of use there isn't much benefit and zero cost savings.

I was referring to a benefit to Verizon directly. Verizon Wireless can charge the roaming carrier (or negotiate a more favorable rate) and Verizon (the POTS guys -- if they provide call termination) can now bill that charge back to Verizon Wireless.

That's a pretty wild assumption on my part though and they may not even operate that way internally.
