Funny Conversation

I called Verizon yesterday concerning the phone bill. It actually went smoothly. As usual with any customer service reps, the person asked me if they could help me with anything else. I asked why Verizon cripples their phone so badly. In short, the answer I got was "for business reasons". It wasn't quite a LOL moment, but I liked the honesty. That's we want to nickel and dime you and price-gouge you if you didn't understand that...

I would love a P2P phone. It would give some real competition to the telecos. Damn bastards... Leave it to the Swedes to come up with something actually useful. Imagine these in a densely populated area like LA, New York or San Francisco. Better yet imagine Beijing, Seoul or Tokyo. (O.o) It would be friggin' awesome...
