The new crop of Wireless Telephones
arising from the world of
Teléph-on-délgreen, Kentucky, are
dizzying. But more dizzying is why, when and who
invented the WT, and who founded the place
(Teléph-on-délgreen) where the first
crop of the NBS1908 Wireless Telephone
originated?" CLICK

Wonder
if you woke up on April fool's day, only to find
out in the Astrological Forecast, that if you lent
your Wireless Telephone, lost it, or even
gave it away, it would come back to you. You're
realizing what you own and what you do not. And
it's reassuring to have figured out -- that chances
are, not only you didn't own it, neither did the
phone company that sold it to you, especially after
seeing the headline, "Big
Firms Score in $19-Billion FCC Auction
sale."
The
article reads like this. The nation's two largest
wireless companies emerged as the biggest winners
in a record-setting auction of public airwaves,
increasing the odds that they will continue to
dominate that market for years to come.
Verizon
Wireless agreed to pay more than $9 billion of the
$19 billion raised for government coffers and got
the largest chunks of the spectrum, which it is
expected to use for such high-volume transmissions
as video and corporate data.
AT&T
Inc., the only carrier larger than Verizon, will
pay more than $6 billion for new slices of the
spectrum, according to figures released Thursday by
the Federal Communications Commission. It won
licenses to use smaller parts of the airwaves, but
AT&T noted that it recently bought $2.5 billion
worth of more-valuable spectrum in a private
sale.
Part

/ The just-concluded
auction covers only licenses to transmit and
receive electronic signals of different frequencies
in various regions.
Consumer advocates
said they were disappointed that no major new
companies, like Google, emerged. They hoped that
the strong signals up for grabs -- currently used
by television stations but due to be returned to
the government in 2009 as the stations complete
their switch to digital signals -- would provide a
third high-speed data pipe to homes, rivaling DSL
and cable.
But both AT&T and
Verizon co-owner Verizon Communications Inc.
already offer DSL service.
"It was the only
place on the wireless spectrum where you could
possibly have a third pipe, and they didn't get
that. That's a big failure," said Ben Scott,
Washington policy director of Free Press, a
nonprofit group opposed to media consolidation.
The NBS100 Study
Group said it was hardly a surprise, because we
know around here, what the real values of the
Wireless Telephone Patent, trademark and
copyrights are worth. They along with the analog
frequencies described in the NBS1908 papers, will
keep rising in value because of digital RFiD
technology.
Part
03
/ LATimes writer, James
Granelli asks, "should you put the All-in-one
iPhone on hold, until you know more about it?
Picking a cellphone plan has become one of the
connected life's great chores."
Many of the nation's 235
million mobile-phone customers have faced the
mind-numbing task of poring over an overwhelming
array of available services and handsets, and it's
not getting any easier.
Granelli reports that nearly
9 out of 10 cellphone users get their service from
the nation's top four carriers: AT&T Inc.,
Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel Corp. and T-Mobile
USA. Each offers dozens of individual plans, family
plans and handsets. Then there are the add-on
features, such as text messaging, streaming video
and photo sending.
Wireless Telephone
customers, especially parents with two or three
mobile-crazed teenagers, can face huge bills if
they make the wrong choice.
They may miss the "gotcha"
charges for items like that call that began before
the free night or weekend period. And sometimes
their bills soar because their kids have no idea
how quickly the costs for text messaging, ring
tones, songs, videos and games can add up.
To avoid paying more than
you should, you've got to be smart and prepared.
After all, you will most likely be locked into a
one- or two-year contract -- mainly for discounts
on handsets -- and terminating that deal early will
cost you $150 to $200 a line.
Start the decision-making
process by asking yourself a few simple questions:
Where, when and how much do you use your Wireless
Telephone? What features do you really plan
to use? And how much do you want to spend? The
answers can narrow your Wireless
Telephone choices
quickly.

/ Here are a few Wireless
Telephone tips:
Usually you can
avoid contracts by paying full price for the
handsets, and knowing what kind of Wireless
Telephone system your leasing. What phone
words are they using for the Wireless
Telephone WT-word. VOip, Laptop, Cell, Cable,
WiFi, WiMax.
You also can check out
smaller regional companies, which often let you
quit at any time, or prepaid plans.
Some states have legislation
pending to lessen the pain. But the California
Senate on June 7 rejected a bill that would have
required all carriers to offer 30-day trial periods
and to prorate termination fees, tying the amount
you pay to how much of the contract term
remains.
Get a data plan
if you want to use your Wireless Telephone
phone for checking e-mail, surfing the Web and
taking advantage of offerings such as music, video
and live TV. Be aware that data plans can cost $40
a month or more, and some of the advanced features
incur extra fees. MORE
TIPS AND STORY ABOUT THE WT-WORD -
Mix-Up
"Choosing a handset is a
personal experience," said Kevin Kunkel, Sprint's
vice president for Southern California.
Television commercials and
newspaper ads make a lot of claims. In some cases,
it's OK to believe the hype.
Verizon Wireless, for
instance, boasts in commercials about its network's
superior reliability. That claim is well-founded,
experts said. For several years, Verizon has ranked
at or near the top in customer satisfaction surveys
nationally and regionally.
T-Mobile's frankness about
its coverage limits has helped customers know what
they're getting, and that has helped it surpass
Verizon Wireless in customer satisfaction surveys.
The fourth-largest carrier half the size of No. 3
Sprint -- also wins customers with bigger packages
and more flexible terms for less money.
What's popular now, for
instance, are its MyFaves plans and offers of 1,000
minutes for $40 a month. MyFaves allows unlimited
calls to five people on any wireless or land-line
network in the U.S.
Sprint Nextel, often ranked
low in customer service, has gained attention for
providing a more powerful data network and for
pricing plans that resonate with customers.
On most plans, Sprint still
offers free weekend and night calling starting at 7
p.m.; other carriers start at 9 p.m. And it now has
a handset that handles both Sprint cellular calls
and Nextel Walkie-Talkie service.
AT&T typically offers
the widest variety of handsets -- about three dozen
models now. But otherwise it's still struggling to
find an identity: Cingular Wireless was known for
aggressive pricing, while the old AT&T Wireless
it bought three years ago was known for its
customer service. "It's tough to get a fix on what
they are today," Parsons said.
But on June 29, the company
will launch the iPhone exclusively on its network,
a pioneering move that should help it cash in on
all the music, video, games and other features
offered on multifunction handsets.
Cellphone companies market
the entire mobile experience as a personal one,
giving you what you want when you want it and
wherever you are. AT&T even uses the term
"MEdia" on entertainment services to emphasize the
individual.
Customers have bought into
that notion. Now, with a wide array of offerings,
it's up to you to figure out what to
buy.
