"Europeans are pretty used to paying through the nose for usage charges".. WTF!!
Give me my old UK contract anytime compared to T-Mobile USA! In the UK, you don't pay for incoming calls or texts, caller ID is standard plus loads of other stuff classed as 'extras' over here. You can get huge amounts of bundled minutes, unused minutes rollover, phones are cheap (with a contract) and you get the new phones decades before they arrive over here. Call quality is far superior, more reliable, texts arrive instantly etc etc The USA is still in the dark ages compared to Europe.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
