One of the nice things about working for a pot is having your employer pay your earphone bill. I once racked up a €1500 beak at Nokia (New York Stock Exchange: NOK) during a weekend in Germany and devising my earphone a radio approach point. Those were the years.
If you work for Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT), you used to be able to get the information portion of your bill subsidized, regardless if you used an iPhone or a BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM). Not anymore. Due to a bully saving, people buying dinky little netbooks running Windows XP, Windows Vista organism a collapse (even though it’s just badness PR), and massive occupation cuts, you’re now going to rich person to live with a Windows Mobile smartphone if you want to checkout your electronic mail and Facebook on the go. Silicon Alley Insider contacted Microsoft to see if these claims of making citizenry manipulation their ancient keepsake of a smartphone operating system were true and a representative stated: “This insurance policy took impression as function of the broader monetary value rescue measures announced earlier this year.”
This brings up a doubt: why do some smartphones cost more than others to own per month? I never understood this. BlackBerry I understand since they require an extra host component to employment, but the iPhone or the Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Pre, or any other smartphone, why is it that depending on the device you use, an hustler tin charge you more or less. Smells like shit to me, and I know it smells like damn to AT&T users out there too who have friends with cheaper bills simply because their device has the $19.99 unlimited data plan, versus the $29.99 unlimited data architectural plan.
Data is data is data, right? Wrong.
