#Verizon will be soon charging for the privilege of upgrading your phone on their service. @Verizon

$30 - That is what you will pay if you upgrade to a new phone on Verizon starting April 22, 2012.

This is the problem with public companies.  They MUST improve every quarter else their stock is in the toilet and the executives can't maintain or improve their wealth.  So we end up with bogus fees to bring the bottom line up.  This has Bank of America's fee to compensate for reduced debit card charges written all over it.

How about adding services with value that we are eager to pay for Verizon?

I will apply a Jeff Bezos quote here, the CEO of Amazon.com:

"There are two kinds of companies, those that work to try to charge more and those that work to charge less. We will be the second."

Verizon is apparently the first type of company.

All I can say is.... LAME
