I realize this is a rhetorical question but....why does Verizon have
such crappy phones??????????????????????????????????

Many of the phones start out feature rich in the manufacturer's warehouse--
but VZW specifies that they cripple many of the advanced features built into
the phone. This approach forces you to use VZW's software/systems instead.
That way, they can charge you for it.

It's one approach to revenue generation-- driven by accounting and marketing
suits who really don't know anything about customer psychology. Others call
it milking/screwing the customer. Customers who like you and feel good about
you will eventually spend more with you-- not to mention talking you up to
their friends. That's another approach to marketing and company strategy.

Look at the tone of the comments about VZW in this NG. Other than
recognizing that they have about the best network in the industry, you don't
read much good about them here....
