2 cents per minute?!?!??!

Well, that will certainly free up the internet. Lot's of folks won't spend that to surf the net. It adds up when you think about it.

That is $9.60 per day if you log on and stay connected during the market hours (figured 8 hours). Which works out to $196.00 per four week month. That is nuts!

Hmm....think about what that will do to the Telecom equipment companies. Less demand for the net, less demand for the hottest and fastest growing sector of our nation. (that is my opinion anyway).

David, thanks. That would be terrible. How many people can afford $1.2 for one hour of surfing? And how are they going to enforce the surcharge? Through the local phone company? And what about the access at the work? Sorry for the questions, please don't feel obligated to answer me.

Thanks again.
