    Exclamation Real cell phone competition will mean better service!

    What do you folks think about this? Would it be government interference into business or rectifying unfair business practices? With a slight twinge of reservation I think it's a justified request of Congress.

    This is a petition campaign by the Comsumers Union.

    Wireless companies enjoy a market nearly free of true competition in many parts of the country. Mergers and acquisitions -- along with anti-competitive practices like locked handsets and early termination fees -- keep you from voting with your feet.

    Cell phones can work a lot better for less money and Congress can help.

    Three simple reforms--phones that you can take with you when you switch plans, early termination fees pro-rated for your time on the contract, and improved innovation processes--will finally make cell phone companies compete for your business based on price and service.

    Tell Congress you are fed up with cell phone "gotchas" and want more competition!

    This would be more of correcting an unfair business practice than anything else, IMO
