Joe Farren Wireless Quotations

Wireless carriers, they have a proud history of working with local communities and trying to meet their wireless needs, and also their wishes about where would be best to put infrastructure. That is a tough challenge. People will say we want wireless service but we don't want those towers, but the laws of physics don't allow you to have it both ways.

We very much believe that laws are being broken and people are profiting from it. Without prosecution there will continue to be this fraud and subscribers and wireless companies will continue to be the victims.

Early-termination fees equal lower monthly wireless rates. The suggestion that we should have a model whereby people can cancel and walk away with a free phone is just untenable.

Content providers have seen what wireless has been able to deliver for the music industry. What's coming up next is the video.

Without the early-termination clause, people would be gaming the system. People would walk away with a $500 phone for virtually nothing. An early-termination fee allows the wireless provider to recoup the costs of giving a phone to a consumer for a steep discount. Without it, you simply have an economic model that doesn't work.

This device has changed the way we live for the better certainly for emergencies. We encourage wireless users to respect others' space.
