Big Red Machine & Alltell=THE VOICE OF AUTHORITY
This is a great deal on Verizon's behalf. They're aquiring 13 million more customers to add to their current 67 million. Alltel has had a great network here in the southeast (ATL) and their reputation is good. Regardless of the "My Circle" plan, I personally know several people who have Alltel that were excited to join Verizon. Look at all the perks: free backup assistant, vz navigator, exclusive & an enormous catalog of music (downladable over the air), cool phones (venus, voyager, glyde, sna...

i guess lets start with the begining
your network is HUGE i must agree but its obvious that u are not looking at the BIG picture ....
your network is only the size of USA .....
how many world phones does verizon currently have ?
exactly my point .... none till last year and even that u have to have a SIM card slot for your phone ....why u ask
its because GSM is EVERYWHERE.....
our network has and always will be GLOBAL
You CANNOT say that even after a merger like alltel ..... so your gonna back pedal finally change all the alltel towers over so they are digital ... YOUR STILL NOT GLOBAL!
i like verizon as a company ... they get at&t's leftovers once they wear out a phone for 9 months.....

Yes, there are some, but not enough be be harpin on the "global coverage" song.
i am in the banking capital right now and about 18% travel monthly overseas plus mostly every foreigner that is in america have an unlocked GSM phone and don't wanna pay for a new one let alone aren't here long enough to do a contract
we have a certain market cornered is how i see it
but don't take my word for it ...
I also don't belive you represent the majority of everyday person in the US.
and i don't represent the majority of everyday person in the US ?
that makes no sense
i see and meet people with different needs everyday ....
i have been in sales for many many years now
im not saying i am Dr Phil but im very capable of seeing things in different perspectives
as in this one .... there are more people from overseas in america that are aware of the greatness of GSM ....
thats simply was i was saying
If you travel to Europe all of the time, then make the choice that is right for you. VZW does have global phones that work just as well if not better as other carriers phones.
Bottom line is that is each customers choice and they should base it on what works best for them, not on what you or I think.

I tell my customers who are going overseas wait and get one there. It saves them money and the per minute charges are lower. Unless you like paying international roaming rates.
