    more to the point, Google has gone on record that such transparent changes have been underway since last year...

  3. Comment - US Cellular joins the ranks of carriers with unlimited calling plans

    (Feb 23, 2008 - 8:23 AM)

    I pay $140 a month..

    For TWO PHONE ACCOUNTS (Suncom). Both with unlimited calling, web, and SMS. One for me, for business. The other for a 14 year old daughter who won't shut up. :P

    Been with them on an unlimited plan for more than 5 years on my main account!!! It's about time the rest of the industry felt some pressure to change.

  4. Comment - Hackers manage to unlock newest iPhones

    And customers who unlock the iPhone knowing this (which seems at the moment to be around 27% of them) could care less. A significant and telling amount of people considering the risks involved.

    When you have a significant amount of your customers giving you the finger, maybe it's time you change your business model? Companies that forget who's really in charge (the customer) always pay in the end, and Apple has put itself in a really bad position as a result of this.

    It has about reached the point where Apple would do more harm to itself continuing it's locking strategy than it is worth. Yet it has banked on this strategy to far too much of an extreme to back down either. Apple's created it's very own personal "rock and a hard place". Glad I don't own Apple stock, as it's already being effected negatively by Apple's inability to expand it's revenue sharing/locking strategy.

  5. Comment - Mistake leaks specs of upcoming Nokia N96 phone

    (Feb 10, 2008 - 1:17 PM)

    The American cellphone market has become a unique beast compared to the rest of the world.

    It is because of this that innovative, feature rich phones are more easily had in Asia and Europe.

    My regional provider (Suncom) only has one Nokia phone in it's stable at the moment. That didn't stop me from grey-marketing my Nokia N81.
