A discussion about the Telecommunication Industry

Get ready for a wave of pricing plan changes from cell phone companies and hopefully prices will be dropping.  A few weeks ago, Verizon Wireless started the latest price war with an industry first $99 unlimited voice usage plan.  AT&T and Sprint soon followed.  Sprint even upped the ante, with their SimplyEverything plan, by included mobile web browsing and text and picture messaging in their $99 offering. AT&T has now fired back with their new BusinessTalk plan, which expands on the traditional family plan.  The BusinessTalk plan supports up to 40 phones and 20,000 minutes per month, a huge increase from the 5 line maximum on the family plan from AT&T and Verizon  and the 4 on Sprint's family plan.  I certainly plan on looking into AT&T when my company's current Verizon Wireless contract is up unless Verizon comes up with a share plan that supports more then 5 phones.
