AT&T Hates Their Customers

Ive been a customer with AT&T (formerly known as Cingular and Cellular One before that) for 11 years and have had unlimited data for the majority of that time. Ive had it so long that I am fairly confident that it was before they had a separate tethering plan, and as such, Ive been tethering off and on during that time. Now this is not something I do exclusively (I have home Internet), but it is something I do when at airports and sometimes hotels and want to get online. It is also true also that most months I am below 4 GB in data (though there are a number I have gone above it). With all that being said, Ive gotten three nasty forms of communication from AT&T the past few days telling me that the plan I signed up for many moons ago is no longer valid and they will automatically enroll me in a plan that offers much less and costs way more. TOTALLY UNCOOL. Now Im not a lawyer and so Im not sure the legal ramifications. Im guessing they have a great team of lawyers that work for them and they made all this legal (is grandfathering plans a legal thing anyway or is it just a nice thing they do?)… The point is Ive been a loyal customer all these years and even an advocate for them much of this time (though obviously theres no way for them to know that) and theyd rather screw me and discontinue something Ive had and try to pad their wallets a bit more then work with me. They would rather me leave then take the $90 a month I have been giving them. Not cool <b>…<b>

Motorola Triumph Review Part 1

Sydney does a full review of the Motorola Triumph from Virgin Mobile. This is Virgins first high-end phone and it has been highly anticipated by prepaid customers. The Triumph features a 4.1-inch display, a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, and a 5 MP camera capable of capturing 720p HD video. Will this be the phone that brings new customers to prepaid? Do prepaid customers finally have a decent phone worth buying? In this review, Sydney covers performance, battery life, camera, 3G speeds, and more. There are definitely better phones out there with dual-core processors and 3D displays. So is it worth switching from a carrier that offers superphones like those to Virgin Mobile and the Motorola Triumph? Well find out in the full review.

Cell Phones Cause Cancer?

Im not as interested in answering the question of whether cell phones cause brain cancer (the jury is still out) as I am examining our response to an initial prospective study on the topic. As consumers of news media, we need to become better informed about the kinds of evidence produced in scientific studies. So, do cell phones cause brain cancer? We dont know. It seems very unlikely, given what we know about non-ionizing radiation, but theres just not enough evidence to declare "guilty" or "not guilty". Its impossible to test the hypothesis "Do cell phones NOT cause cancer", so our best guide will be the number of papers that fail to show a strong link. Clear answers would be easier, I know, but then it wouldnt be science.
