Re: Greedy Verizon said by crazyk4952:Or here's another idea: make the monthly price for the data service cheaper than what AT&T charges for the iPhone (or wait...this is greedy Verizon we are talking about that likes to nickel and dime their customers!). What are you talking about? PDA data plans are $30 from Verizon and iPhone plans are $30 from AT&T. They are exactly the same. |

This would make more people consider switching to the Android. There are things to compete on other than price. People don't choose the iPhone or any Apple product based on price, therefore it would be foolish to compete against the iPhone on price. |

Dunno: I'm stuck paying $60/mo for voice service plus $30 for data service. If I could get a $70/mo data-only plan and a phone that could do pure VOIP, I'd go that route. -- The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. -- Bertrand Russell |

One would hope that you'd at least be able to use other devices as TAs so that, when you're in places like my office building, and have "no bars", you could use your laptop to place/receive calls.  -- The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. -- Bertrand Russell |
