Apple just turned this habit against them by making a device that's really good.
Are these politicians that clueless, or are they as in the pockets of the other cell carriers as they sound? Either way, this is an object lesson in why politicians ought to
be kept away from the technology business.
The Politicians see a golden goose, and they want the eggs.
No, unfortunately they are not clueless. I think the politicians know exactly what they are doing. In regulating big business, they force big business to come to them for "favors" which they are more than happy to hand out for a price.
It puzzles me that apple did not release the iphone non-carrier specific (unlocked). They would have made a killing. They still could... or just wait until someone figures out how to unlock it.
