Well, if we're not looking to become a national carrier (and we aren't under Jack Rooney), then it may well be a cost we'll never encounter.

But I don't know, frankly. I'm a Blackberry support rep. Not a business manager.

All I see from the cell companies currently in Maine is let's bleed the population dry and offer very limited services since Maine is very much a "podunk state"

That is the impression I have felt from company to company (I have tried and hated them all)

Someday, a cell company will have the balls to step up to the plate and give Mainers that same type of network enjoyed by those who congregate in larger cities.

All the while, I continue to pay over $200 a month for a family plan with five lines which includes $65 in data plans (my wife has a blackberry, I have the Q)

US Cellular currently is the lesser of several evils.
And I would disagree that we're an evil at all. See, you've got certain things you want from a carrier, and that's absolutely legitimate and your right as a consumer. But if those needs represent a consumer we're not about serving, does that make us wrong or evil?

You could make a case for that, probably. But I'd disagree that it's automatically so.
