Re: The Overburdened AT&T Network said by dddane:AT&T should be shipping them out for free to get people to offload some of their RF traffic at a more micro level...of course their own greed gets in the way of doing this. And that's exactly the point. Instead of trying to get revenue for "better indoor service", they should look at it as offsetting the costs of running their own services.
It's kind of amusing. Businesses get by on margin. There's two ways of improving your margins: sell more or reduce expenses. Most businesses only grok "reduce expenses" when the markets tighten and they can't maintain or grow sales. So long as a product sells now, why do anything to ensure that it continues to sell, tomorrow. -- The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. -- Bertrand Russell |
