Verizon set to reduce data plan pricing in 2008?

Not too long ago I signed up for one of Verizon’s Data Plan packages.  After so doing, I was presented with a link and asked if I’d like to participate in a survey.  "Well, why not?" I thought.  In the space provided for commentary I echoed the feelings of many who see Verizon’s Data Plan as being fairly pricey when compared to others.  A day later, I received a voicemail from someone who identified himself as a "senior manager" with Verizon.  He thanked me for my survey participation and comments, and finished with an aside saying "I thought you’d like to know we plan on reducing our Data Plan rates in the first quarter of 2008.  That’s all I can tell you."

So there you have it.  A rumor at best, mere customer placation at worst.  I’ll have to keep a watchful eye on the New Year.

Its about time. Verizon’s rates are absurd when compared to Sprint’s $15 plan. My minutes and data plan on Sprint come out to $40/month which pales in comparison to what it would with Verizon’s absurd rates.
