I Hate Cell Phone Companies, But Loved This Cyber-Monday Deal!

MY CELL PHONE IS BASIC, IN FACT I'VE BEEN USING TRACFONE BUT I'M SICK OF SPENDING 40+$ A MONTH TO REFILL MY DOUBLE MINUTES FOR LIFE PHONE WITH A 200 MINUTE=400 MINUTE CARD. IF YOU HUNT FOR PROMO CODES ON THE SEARCH ENGINES YOU CAN GET AN EXTRA 60-150 MINUTES ADDED ON WITH THE RIGHT CODE WHEN YOU ADD AIRTIME.

IN LATE SUMMER, TRACFONE ADDED TRIPLE MINUTES FOR LIFE PHONES. THE BEST DEAL ON THIS TYPE OF PHONE WAS FOUND HERE AT AMAZON.

SURFING THE WEB TODAY, I FOUND THE PERFECT BASIC PHONE WITH UNLIMITED MINUTES AND TEXTS FOR $30 A MONTH - GOOD FOR A YEAR!@ NET 10. TO ME THE QUESTION I ASK ,IS, WHY DON'T THE MAJOR CELL PHONE PROVIDERS LOWER THEIR CHARGES?

I HATE VERIZON, ATT, SPRINT, T-MOBILE, VIRGIN AND ALL THE OTHER THIEF'S RUNNING THE CELL PHONE INDUSTRY. BASIC PHONE SERVICE WITH THE MAJOR CARRIERS RUNS $65-$85 A MONTH FOR UNLIMITED SERVICE WITH A ONE OR TWO YEAR CONTRACT. FOR NOW, I DON'T NEED A 3G OR 4G SMART PHONE RUNNING APPS ETC., JUST A BASIC PHONE TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE WORLD OUTSIDE.

IN FACT, I WOULD PROBABLY USE A CELL CARRIER FOR INTERNET ACCESS IF THE PRICE WAS RIGHT. BUT THE PRICE IS WAY TOO HIGH. IN FACT, I AM A PROPONENT OF MAKING THE ENTIRE USA ONE GIANT INTERNET ACCESS HOTSPOT WITH FREE INTERNET ACCESS FOR ALL. THAT WOULD GET THE ECONOMY GOING AGAIN, MORE SO THAN HIGH SPEED RAIL.

EVER SINCE KANSAS CITY'S UNITED TELECOM [NOW SPRINT] BUILT A DEDICATED FIBER OPTIC NETWORK FOR THE CIA IN THE MID 80'S, I KNEW TELECOMMUNICATIONS WAS GOING TO BE BIG. I CALL 2011, THE YEAR OF THE COMPUTER, BECAUSE PRICES ON COMPUTERS HAVE DROPPED SO LOW, THAT, YOU CAN GET A GREAT UNIT FOR $700. WHEN WILL THE YEAR OF WIRELESS SERVICES BE?; WHEN PRICES FOR CELL SERVICE AND INTERNET CONNECTIVITY WILL DROP LOW ENOUGH TO BE AFFORDABLE TO EVERYONE?
