Isn't this collusive pricing?
by cidman2001 February 19, 2008 2:49 PM PST
On the one hand this is great news for the consumer who has had to suffer through all these tiered pricing plans. On the other hand, didn't Coke and Pepsi get spanked by the DOJ back in the 80's for price fixing...I don't see how this is much different, and it may make it harder for the smaller carriers to compete. Just my two cents from Vermont where we can't even get service from 2 of the 4 companies mentioned. Hmmmmmm...

Finally you can compare plans
by Mike Malone February 19, 2008 3:51 PM PST
In the past it has been impossible to accurately compare price plans from one
carrier to the next because they offered different break points, etc.. Now you
can compare minutes and it is easy to figure out how much more you pay for the
text messaging, blackberry, etc... Great news for consumers.
