Re: push it to the coasts. Who has Paypal? I will start making bets that KC turns out to be a major failure and they will NOT expand any further. Bring it on. |

| I don't think it will be an economic success but it will certainly succeed in many other areas. Success that will be replicated in one form or another in other places. I just dont see where the 1Gig delivered and 5/1 for basically free has any real ROI for 99.9% of companies on a large scale at least for now.

I do not, have not, and will not work for AT&T/Comcast/Verizon/Charter or similar sized company. |

Failure?
I live in Kansas City and Google made a success before they even started selling it.
People can't wait to get it here. There is excitement about it. Why shouldn't there be? Free internet or 1 Gig for 70 bucks, people have a right to get excited. |

I agree. This is NOT going to expand outside of these metro areas. Shareholders will NOT keep this alive. |

Shareholders?
Shareholders seem ok with GOOGLE stock piling cash without disbursing a regular dividend. This is a tiny blip on the radar compared to that.
It won't even register. |

you must not know you can NOT be a success before having a product. And those same people you talk about- will keep the local providers they are with- TWC and AT&T. More than 50% of those customers claiming they will switch will NEVER switch. Look at VZ's FiOS uptake- the numbers are BELOW what the former CEO said they would be, and its proven customers do NOT switch providers when they have options. They'd rather bitch about their current providers. Especially when it costs $$$$ and a day or more switching.
And your 1gig will never be fully used. And the Shareholders will NOT be happy without $$$$$ made back this year. |

| Once again.
Google has hoarded cash without payment of dividends back to shareholders for what ....a decade?
The major stakes in Google are on 100% autopilot.
Android is a cash cow and smaller investors are expecting a dividend yet it has been announced over and over none is planned basically ever. |
|
| reply to DataRiker
that is currently. They're also happy with VZ's stockpile, But yet why do you think FiOS is on hold? it's UPTAKE and ROI. Shareholders want their $$$$$$. And it will register. They will want their $$$. Why do you think they keep changing Google Apps and downsizing what new users get? They want their $$$$. |

| reply to DataRiker
Again- they want their ROI back into the company.
Android makes NOTHING as it's free to anyone. Moot product.
You are NOT going to have them expanding this service without any ROI. That's simple business. But you must not realize that. |

You think android makes no money for Google?
What search engine does it direct you too?
How much advertising revenue do you think every android device generates? ( app market too)
Some have speculated that it will be there biggest money maker ever over the long term.
No offense, but your done here. I can't even fathom that you think android makes no money. |
|
| BING! and Yahoo! NOT Android- the same as with Cellco products. BING!
App market makes nothing if the company gives the apps away.
And Apple has done gone by Android and Google in terms of their stores. Sooooo much more on iTunes then on Google- why do you think they have higher theft rates on apps.
And done? LMAO! you were done long ago when you think that Shareholders are NOT going to want any $$ back. A brother of Karl and Dave? |

Yes it is AT&T it used to be the SBC area Southwestern Bell. And they do have U-verse and LOTS of it. and TWC is HUGE there. Besides they also hare Surewest cable/internet. So yah. |

Your stupidity is unbelievable.
I'm being serious.
You think android points to Bing or Yahoo? Have you seen the big bar on the front of every android device? |
|
| Do you realize that CellCo has their phones set to go to Bing? If not- you are not even silly- you drink too much Kool-aid on this site. |
|
| Who does Verizon, Att, Sprint, and T-mobile point to?
I've never heard of Cellco, so I can't speak to that point. |

I was more referring to your credibility.
You actually tried to claim (and still are based on a company named Cellco) that google does not make money on Android.
I have read several of their reports to share holders and they always rank Android at the top of their ad revenue growth ( eg Cellular traffic hits ).
Gmail ad revenue alone is enormous with the influx of Gmail accounts corresponding to android accounts.
Android will be in short order, their biggest money maker to date.
You stated they make no money on Android and still are after being corrected on this point.
Good luck being that hard headed in life. |
