That's a copout. Why should we suck up crappy devices from a carrier just because their network has the best coverage and reliability for our needs?
Verizon certainly has a superior network. However, the devices they supply are subpar. Verizon bundles two products together, the network and the device, and it's impossible to buy the two separated and actually vote with our money.
Does either of them offer unlimited unthrottled 4GLTE, or any 4g for that matter?
Ummm, because it's a "PHONE" and you want the best PHONE coverage???? You do still make phone calls with the device don't you???That's a copout. Why should we suck up crappy devices from a carrier just because their network has the best coverage and reliability for our needs?

Dude, I am not trying to start anything with you, but OP has a right to feel "screwed over" by VZW. Sure, he could have worded the thread title different, but I think everyone should understand its context. The sentiment of most credible news sources and VZW's customers is that big red isn't consumer friendly. I would post links to perceptions of the new plans, all of the delayed launches, the "crippling" of phones, removal of NE2 & annual contracts. I'm not because a quick Google search or cruise through any cell forum will identify them. These items might not be inclusive of OP's complaints, but certainly support his verbiage.If you don't like a company, stop doing business with them. Those of you who constantly complain about Verizon and then continue doing business with them look like total morons.
Page Plus doesn't work there?

In addition, to an extent, you have complained about: Amazon, Verizon and other carriers, and HTC. It's ok to complain, right?
Sure, he has the choice to do business with another carrier. We all do, but might only have one carrier that provides optimal coverage in their area.
Rather than everyone complaining about OP's opinion/request in this thread, shouldn't they exercise their right to find another thread? There are (good) mods here to keep things legit.
See, the beauty of it is that you don't have to use Verizon. All you have to do is balance the positives versus the negatives and make your choice from there. It's called compromise.
As many of us have learned while growing up, you can't always have everything you want in the world.
Apple's "antenna gate" is the perfect example of this. All you saw in the news was the failing antenna and design flaws in the iPhone. Barely a dent in their sales though...The thing with these big companies like Verizon and Apple,, Is they have so many million customers that you could never hurt them.. The only way to retake the market for the consumer is to boycott cell phones all together.. Kinda like if everyone in America would cancel their health insurance on the same day
And now you are calling the Galaxy S3 a 'crappy device'???
page plus isnt going to do much since you would need a cdma phone( ala verizon) which would still have the carrier tie ins.
Did you read the rest of the thread, people that are complaining have no choice, they have to use Verizon
