[The current nation-wide campaign by AT&T features the digital Startac for their One-Rate plan. I sincerely hope that Nokia manages to sell a lot of those 8860/Wap phones....they will need to.

The New York Times ran a full page ad last week by AT&T that featured Nokia's Disney phones. We get the Times 7 days a week. Often, I see T advertise Nokia phones.

Also, on local radio stations, in the recent past, AT&T ran a campaign that featured Nokia phones.

I'd really like to see AT&T run a TV spot with Nokia phones. Samsung has one that they run with local news.

But Back to the One Rate Plan?

We believe that the one-rate plan that AT&T offers is very deceptive. Recently, we received a letter from AOL and AT&T that offered a one-rate plan. Only, at the very, very bottom of the letter in tiny letters that were barely legible was a line that said there was a was a monthly charge of X dollars for the one-rate plan.

I almost sent the letter to the Attorney General's Office because we believed that T & AOL's advertising was misleading. Our local TV news has warned people in the areas about the one-rate plans offered by various companies because it can be very difficult to find out if there is a monthly service charge.

I don't know what kind of phone AOL & AT&T offered with the One Rate Plan. I was so furious that I didn't notice.

Sincerely,

Mephisto
