“Business Change” vs. “Business as Usual” with Verizon 4G

This weekend, Verizon is turning on their fast new mobile telecommunications network. Early testing shows Verizon’s 4G LTE network to be incredibly fast (although 4G is expensive—there’s no “unlimited” option).

Not a big deal, and honestly not much of a story in itself. But this week I got to thinking about Verizon and business change . . . and politics . . . when I got involved in a discussion about the 4G LTE roll-out here. In fact, it seems I said something worth hearing; my comments on Verizon and politics have started spreading to other places that you wouldn’t expect to find them.

“Federal Subscriber Line Charge”

[Updated February 16, 2010]

Two-and-a-half years later, with much traffic still flowing here and to our parent PC-VIP, I’ve decided to update this post:

When Judge Herbert Greene broke up the phone company back in 1984, he set a business change in motion that was supposed to be useful and helpful to consumers. In fact, it was; we no longer pay $.25 per minute for long distance, and AT&T had no incentive to change that before competition was created. Thank you, Judge Greene.
