Yuck. I also remember the last time I had to fight with an ex-roommate who ran up the local phone bill on his own and then refused to pay it because he was leaving the country. I almost had to rip his head off before he coughed up the cash to cover the charges. It will be nice to see fewer students going through that hassle. Cell phones are much more practical anyway, given that many students change residences each semester. It only makes more sense to have one phone number which stays with you for all that time. -- Hey Fast Eddie... you're next!

Oh I hated that company!!! I believe I got a cell phone my 2nd year of college and it was 20x cheaper. Plus ACUS overcharged me at least 4 times from what I remember.

I believe I got a cell phone my 2nd year of college and it was 20x cheaper. My problem was that at the time (mid-1990s) cell service was still expensive and nationwide calling plans were non-existent. Bell Atlantic Mobile was nickel-and-diming me on just about anything they could (remember the days of 99 cent a minute roaming?). Personally, I am glad that cell service has plummeted in price and that the phrase "long distance call" no longer has any meaning. -- Hey Fast Eddie... you're next!
