Re: lower prices already..

theres no unlimited calling plans on copper, only local calls are unlimited. its the same with cellular where "local" becomes phones on the same network. you still pay extra for long distance whether its voip, cellular, or traditional landline. no matter how you slice it 20 million simultaneous calls takes up a lot of network bandwidth, and thats going to cost money.

I think he meant flat rate plans that give unlimited local and long distance calling. I just got one, because my wife and I noticed that nearly 90% of our wireless calls originated in our home. We got unlimited local and long distance on our home phone for only $15 more than we had been paying (I already had a POTS line for my DSL). This $15 increase on our home phone is probably saving us $100 on our wireless bill.

I make LOTS of long distance calls and I don't nave nor want a cell phone. My long distance bills were around $300 a month until I ditched AT&T and signed up with one of Verizon's Freedom packages and now I'm paying $55 a month and making unlimited long distance calls to any cell or landline in the U.S. and Canada.
