[SML] (Sort of semi-OT) The Un-Carrier

[Chip Wood]

Dave- Been a T_Mobile user for over 20 yrs.  They just keep upgrading my 
original 1995ish  plan, but keep same very low fees!!!!, and they have 
way upped the coverage (still not quite as good as Ver) and now 
w/unlimited usage and auto Wi-Fi.  Had some problems w/ grandkids' 
abuses, but they easily forgave $$$ them all, for good customer 
relations.  Used it all over Europe free and easy (no firmware 
adjustments) because they are a EU based company.

Dick- Sitting in the parking lot in PHX is a non-option (115 
yesterday).  Go inside, spend a buck for an unlimited coke (and 
bathroom), and spread out in a corner booth.  I've never seen a customer 
rousted for overstaying his wi-fi time.  This begs the question -if 
McD's offers free Wi-Fi, why does Hilton, Marriott, and other top-shelf 
hotels charge $15-$25/ day for it?
