I thought we were talking all these years about the overall customer metric, not the retail metric. Save the celebrating for when VZW passes the overall metric.

For a troll you don't do a lot of forum browsing. Cingular's adding the unlimited texting too.

Verizon has always been good at advertising, so this will be good for them. The reality of this is that Cingular will probably have unlimited texting deployed before Verizon does.

The story on the main page wasn't choc-full-a details. It sounded more like an announcement than a launch.

Does anyone really care about unlimited texting? 1,000 - 3,000 should be plenty. Anyone who text messages more than 3,000 times in a month needs to get a life check. As in getting one. That is ridiculous.

Right thats why the smartest company in wireless decided to offer it 🙄

That VZW is the 'smartest company in wireless' is perhaps a good indication that more competition in wireless is required.

If VZW was the smartest company in wireless they'd offer the one thing everyone else does except them. Earlier night and weekends.

There are more uses for messages than simply sending and receiving those text

That's why its easy to go so high

There are people who could use far more than that. I don't even go over 300 a month, both incoming and outgoing, and can't fathom how people can use so many, but they do and should have options. I'm sure there's something you do that causes them to feel that you need to get a life.

And obviously a very fulfilling life if you feel the need to come online and call someone a r-tard. 🙄

I don't think you're a troll. Its-the-Network looks like one. We've also got the unlimited texting though.

??????????????

According to RCR Cingular is still number one. If you would like to find ways to reduce our total subscriber base I am sure many carriers could do the same to you.

Alltel, number one carrier*

*To those that own cows.

And as others have stated, Cingular has already planned well before Verizon annouced today to offer unlimited messaging. We will be a few days behind but it wasn't a reaction by any means.

1M SYNCs sold plus another .5M BlackJacks among the other 3G phones like the V3xx that now -just like the SYNC- are coming in other colours -and being sold just as fast-. I can't wait to check out those Q1 results. It seems to me that Cingular customers are picking up those 3G handsets faster that any other carrier. Why? Well, Cingular customers are by far more aware about technology than other customers in the CDMA arena.
I don't care what anyone says about the iPhone. The phone WILL sell like crazy, others know it and that's why they come in here hating... Everyone said the RAZR was a POS for not having EDGE, or a 1.3MP camera and still, until this day (more than 2 years after its release it's selling more that its counterparts) Not even...

I can't wait till SE starts releasing some 3g phones. I have come to the conclusion that their phones are the best!
