The Way It Is, Like It Or Not...
"Virtual operators are sprouting up like weeds in a garden – except these are weeds are starting to look a lot more attractive than the rose beds they’re enveloping. These mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) essentially resell the voice and data services of big operators, but often at much lower prices and with more flexible plans."
~ You know why they’re hot? Because people like me can keep my iPhone 4S on RedPocket (which I have) for half what AT&T costs me per month. I now pay my bill and Beth’s bill for less than I was paying for mine alone. Either way, this is a very good summation of the MVNO situation and why it’s changing the wireless industry. Why are MVNOs so hot right now? Thank the carriers — Mobile Technology News
How’s that for an easy answer?
