| What's the big deal!?!?!? I don't see the big deal...
Verizon Wireless is a company that's in business to make money... and apps on a smartphone is another place they can make money...
If you don't like it, you are welcome to choose another wireless provider that doesn't lock down their phones, IE Sprint....
But if you don't mind this, then you can stay with them...
If you have a contract stay til the end and cancel, or if it's that big a deal, cancel and pay the ETF..
As far as i can tell, Verizon Wireless is just leveraging their 80+ Million customers to make more money, and thats what you want from a public company, them to make more money...
BTW, I say Sprint, because all of their phones are Java based, and you can install anything on them... same goes for smartphones, download the free Sprint Titan Java environment and you can run any Java Mobile application... | | |

True, they - Verizon / Bell Atlantic / C&P - are and have always been all about making money.
I agree that there should be no shame it that.
However, providing me, the customer with the best experience should be your priority. Do that, and the money would follow.
When you priority is money only combined with a traditional teclo my way or the highway mentality, this type of announcement looks like hype. | |
