Verizon Drops Opposition To Cell-Number Portability
EyesWideOpen writes "Verizon has announced (NYTimes - free registration required) that it would drop its opposition to the proposed F.C.C plan that would allow callers to keep their wireless phone numbers when they switch carriers. Verizon, the nation's largest mobile phone company, was seen as 'the standard-bearer of the opposition against wireless number portability' but has shifted it's position citing the recent court ruling as the reason for doing so. The F.C.C has set a deadline of November 24 for it's rules to take effect. Other mobile phone companies such as Cingular Wireless and AT&T Wireless are still expected to appeal the court ruling. Several previous stories on number portability here(1), here(2), here(3), here(4), and here(5)."
are you glad you subscribed and thus obtained the fr1st p0st with such an idiot meaningless comment or do you just think you had to fill that gap here and thus accelerate your Simonikerization ?
big fucking deal. Don't use a cell phone. They are worthless. Stop continuing the fucking cell phone culture non-sense.
STAY OUT OF TOUCH WITH PEOPLE. It works.
Yeah, but in the U.S. we have big guns and are not afraid to use them... When the time comes, we'll just blast your puny, European satelites out of the skies (which, of course, rightfully belong to the U.S.)!
Gee, how nice of you. Is it any wonder that even South Korea thinks that the US presents a greater threat to world peace than North Korea does?
