How Future Cell Phones SHOULD Work
By the end of the year, Verizon Wireless will begin rolling out it’s new LTE based network. For those who dont know what LTE is, it’s the next high speed wireless data network with crazy fast connection speeds.
As it stands today, if you buy a smart phone you can pay upwards of $40-60 a month for just the right to TALK and another $30-60 a month if you want to have a data plan. In the future, this needs to change. We are moving into a culture where data and voice connectivity is almost mandatory to function in today’s society. E-mail, Facebook, Twitter, GPS, and basic web browsing is needed on the go. But seriously, who wants to pay $120 a month for a cell phone!?
The new model should be simply this: Buy a “bucket of megabytes” (as Verizon Chief Executive Lowell McAdam calls it). Included in that bucket is all voice and data transmissions. Yes, this bucket would include all text messages as well. Since LTE is an all IP network, you dont need a cell phone number through Verizon unless you choose to. If I like, my cell can be linked to a Skype number, or Google Voice number.
That my rant, now I am done.
