FMK and all threadsters> >>>> Pipe Dream Break>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I was just reading the latest Forbes and it seems that AT&T paid out 15 billion last year for access fees. They have developed an experimental plan in Plano, Texas in which they subsidize cell phones to the customer and charge them about $40/month with unlimited local calls and dime a minute long distance.If the plan is successful they will probably go nationwide. What if every second line in the country is a cell phone with a low flat rate? If that were the case I think the number of cell phones would explode and the the time on a phone would grow geometrically. The bottom line would be huge demand for longer lasting batteries, I'm thinking VLNC li poly. duckster
