Why is mobile phone use in USA most expensive in the world for same or lower quality?

I was actually spurred to ask this when I saw what I'm paying for 4 lines and 3gb of data versus what att offers now. Feeling doubly abused.

Try Germany. Their network is heavily subsidized by their government. They also tax you up to 50% of your earnings. Gas there is roughly $10 per gallon. Mathematically I have seen where in most European countries with the same commodities they end up paying the same average when everything is said and done. Just the "pies" look different.

    My mobile phone is always automatically shut down at the time of the photo.

    Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

    Can I use my norwegian iPhone 4 in the US for a few weeks?

    So I have lived in Daegu, South Korea for 9 months now. And our iphones work perfectly.
    Thankfully we didn't sell our phones in NZ, I had a look online and NZ doesn't lock IPhones to their networks like other countries.
    We went to SKT (in Daegu / National University of Ed) and bought new simcards for $10 each.
    Then signed up for contract / plans.
    We pay roughly $50 a month for unlimited data, 200 minutes, 600 text messages.
    It costs $9 to roam overseas a day.
    We've managed to travel to Japan and Hongkong using our South Korean sims.
    It' been pretty succesful for us.
    All I can say is, do heaps of research peeps, and don't stress :-)

    You can't delete an existing account, you can only choose to stop using it.  It will still be there should you decide to use it again in the future.

    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

    Hey Edgew7,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Creating multiple profiles, using unified profile types, to store multiple values for same properties

    Hi All:
    I am trying to create multiple profiles, using unified profile types, to
    store multiple values for same properties. Here my intention of using
    'unified profile types' is to create multiple profiles (to store multiple
    values for a property). All the properties are stored in the same database
    maintained by Personalization server. Also, I am trying to use the same
    'USER' ejb as profile class/home/pk/jndi.
    The scenerio is,
    define unified profile types (Business, Vacation) using Personalization
    admin tools, using com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User,
    com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.UserHome,
    com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.UserPk,
    com.beasys.commerce.axiom.contact.User for Profile Class, Home, Pk class,
    JNDI name respectively.
    Define Property set 'HotelCommerce' with property
    HotelProp as single, restricted, text (valid values Single, Double)
    Now you can use the attached jsp files to login as a user and try to set the
    property value for HotelProp for each profile. As per my understanding, I
    was expecting that I can set different values for the property 'HotelProp'
    for each profiles. But unexpectedly, all the profiles get the same value.
    Question. is it the correct behavior? if yes, how can I achieve this
    functionality?
    if not, do you see any problem in my scripts?
    your answer asap is appreciated. we need to make decision on using
    Personalization server v/s developing our own Personalization server!!!:)
    thanks,
    -rajesh

    This is not the purpose of the UUP. The UUP is used to allow existing
    database schemas to be aggregated with the existing Weblogic Personalization
    Server database schema to provide a single, customized user profile with which
    to maintain the user properties (
    http://e-docs.bea.com/wlcs/p13n/users.htm#1068901 )
    If you want to have properties that change value based on some "profile" or
    classification of a user, then you should use classifier rules to change the
    user from "OnVacation" to "AtWork" or "AtHome". You can use these classifier
    rules to select content for the user or conditionally execute logic (

  • Enterprise solution for Mobile phones using Wi-Fi

    Hi All,
    Not sure if this is the right forum.
    We are working in a building where we do not get mobile phone coverage ie cannot get signals at all from our telcos
    We recently bought a lot of APs ie AIR-CAP3502I-N-K9 + WLC and start deploys wireless around our building for data.
    Just wondering what alternative solutions or software we can use so we can somehow get our users' mobile to work.
    Thanks

    Configuring Mobile Concierge
    If I read correctly, Cisco has started implementing 802.11u with the soon-to-be-release WLC firmware code 7.3.X called Mobile Concierge. 
    I am not sure about how to get this running but I hope this two links I've posted will get you to work. 
    Unfortunately, I am also not sure how mobile phone carriers will like this if mobile phones will go to an Enterprise wifi instead of their own network.
