Huh? Verizon's voice service is solely operated on the good ol' 1xRTT network. EVDO is exclusively for data. There's nothing really to free up. VoIP would simply eat into the data capacity.

Doesn't mean he does not have a point or that it is a bad thing. The people who scored him down are dumb.

If you think about it, this would be smart on all ends. It would stop overages and reduce churn which is a big concern for any wireless company. Verizon Wireless is trying to get people to do more with data. This would help pull people in that direction. If you look at it, data is cheaper for companies and in honesty, pure revenue after the bandwidth is paid for. Voice is no longer the way to grow a company or grow your revenue. Data transmission is the way to go and I believe this could be a win-win for everyone!!!! People can start lowering those minute plans and get more data on thier phones!!!!

I was being facetious. I am a promoter for vzw. Only tools down ranked my comment b/c I was mocking them and they did not have a logical rebuttal.
