More cell phone woes

This time they aren't my woes (for once). We got an email at work regarding the new charges that Bell and Telus are about to introduce. That's right, they're about to start charging for incoming text messages. Almost the second the news was released, there was outrage. Everyone brings up a good point: we don't control who texts us and when, and now we have to pay for it? That's like saying if someone calls you long distance, you're paying for that call just because you had the nerve to answer the phone. Since the news was released, more information has come out to the effect that those who are paying for unlimited plans will not be charged, however those who rarely ever use the phone (the emailers) will have to pay for every incoming message. The worst part about all this, is Rogers is NOT on that band wagon. This means they will attain more customers.

How do they keep winning?
