4G Coverage?

Last summer, mid July I am sitting on a beach in Delaware fishing.

I decide to access the net, and get a message, something too the extent saying that if I want to access the net I need to use an international access plan.

This kind of thing doesn't actually serve to create a close bond between myself and Verizon.

I remember wondering how many thousands of customers just fold and change plans, simply so that when they go to a beach they can have internet access? It also makes me wonder why I have a smart phone? I makes me wonder was life that bad when I didn't even have a cell phone? It also makes me wonder why I am so willing to pay so much money to do something only to find out that if try to do it I am told that if I want to actually do it I need to pay just a little bit more?
 
This summer, mid August I am sitting here at my desk wondering the the hell the point of that post is.....
 
When I'm at the beach I tend to hope I won't have any occasion to look at my phone.

Okay, maybe reading an ebook or such...

The point? Well,I find it amazing that they will tell you that you can do something. Then I find myself at a beach house with no internet service unless I want to pay more.

They will also tell you they can not do something like block certain calls. Then tell you of a call blocking service that only cost about 5$. From my point of view they either can or they can't. Apparently, for just a little more they can.

There is no doubt in my mind that should I pay just a little more, that for some tech reason I would still get those 0000000000 phone calls. This is what made me think about last summer.

The truth is I am hooked, I'm not giving up my smart phone. I would love to be able to watch tv, and vids daily, and if I wanted to pay xxx amount of dollars I could go back to net flix which was reasonably priced, but the data required would eat my data plan up in a few days.

Cable has gotten so expensive that I am reduced to rabbit ears. Let me see cable, or smart phone? Smart phone won, but you are right. There is very little point to this post. It is what it is...
