This isn't really a discount. They're charging you $6/month for this add-on right? Maybe if this was a free thing, then I could understand the argument of this deal being abuse of a monopoly.

However does Cingular really qualify as a monopoly? Verizon Wireless is nearly as large in terms of customers. VZW could just as easily copy this program for its VZW & Verizon landline customers. Plus didn't some others in this discussion mention Alltel has a similar deal?

I really don't think this will turn into an anti-trust suit. This just doesn't stifle competition.
