These guys have no intention of letting people use up all their voice capacity for data without getting paid. It's part fo the 10 step rehab program for telcom anonymous.<g>

What's the point of all the R & D if you are going to have to give the services away free. With AOL, they got a 7 year free ride on technology with no speed enhancements. They still can't deliver a last mile download thru 40kbps dial up services. It would take 3 hours to download a single CD. Not gonna happen.

Korea is priced at $1 a MB. Once VZ gets BREW and PCS gets their data services (how are they gonna launch gps services without BREW), the game will intensify. Be patient, this is an 8 year trend as CDMA and GSM networks are all upgraded to 3G by 2010.

IMO, we all just got lucky as shit a few years ago with the first Qualcomm surge. We won't have to be as trigger happy this time.
