I'm sorry I was out all afternoon and missed this thread!
That reciever pays billing model is the craziest thing I have ever heard of... American telco's woud be eaten alive in a competitive wireless market.. lucky for them someone sold America a lemon at the start and the rest of the world followed Europe.
Cleo and Grimm... Imagine a time when Cellphones cost less to use than landlines... cell-cell is free for many services... live video calls on cellphones are possible.. TV on your cell phone is possible.. java applications start being released by every company you deal with... every day you see new services that you can Only get by wireless.. every TV show has some PAY offer to buy something related to that show by SMS.
Most of that happens now for most of the world.. in fact I am only using the word cellphone for American benefit.. as they aren't even really phones anymore.. they are fast being accepted as "wireless devices" and every American person will "need" one the same way you "need" a pc/web access now.. 3G in America will change the world.. 200million of you bastards becoming newbie wireless customers over the next 12-24 months feels like being around at the start of the web again!!
Of course KK is 2 steps ahead of the crowd as usual
