John Aravosis secured a much better deal on his iPhone service in France than he does in the US:
Unless you're paying $26 a month for unlimited phone calls, unlimited text, free international calls, and 3 gigs of data, per month, you are being royally ripped off. Because that's what they pay in France for far more service on their iPhones, and other phones, than we pay in the states for three times as much. … Folks, Americans need to wise up. We are being royally ripped off, compared to the rest of the world.
When I tell people here that I pay Comcast $180 a month for home Internet and cable TV (and I don't even get the premium movie channels), they laugh, since folks here pay $30 a month for high speed 100 megabyte fiber optic Internet, cable TV, and phone service (that includes unlimited calls around the world) combined. We should be embarrassed, and then outraged, by how badly we are being cheated by American phone companies and Internet providers.
