[Electronics-talk] waiving $30 internet package with Verizon Droid, cause not fully accessible?

[Tom Evans]

John, court is not fun and you the little guy can do it, yet easier to vote
with your American dollar and these listserves.  I do not fully understand
your point.  if you have the talks with the htc ozone, then as I understand
it is accessible, then you must buy what they prescribe.  They have done
their part on that one phone.  I however do not like the fact that they are
deciding what is best for me.  that would be like going to a restaurant and
them tacking the dessert on your bill and you don't want or need it.
>From an accessibility point they have done their part for the ozone.  For
the customer service, I would rather decide.

Tom, I am a Verizon customer and lodged an informal complaint with Verizon
because of the $30 additional data charge for obtaining the HTC Ozone phone.
Verizon attempted to satisfy me by waiving the data charge for three months
and allowing me to move to another carrier prior to the expiration date of
my contract if I wasn't satisfied with their accessibility. I am now
deciding whether to lodge a formal, legal complaint with the FCC formally
charging Verizon with violating section 255 of the communications Act, which
requires that they provide fully accessible technology "if readily
achievable". Mya rgument would be that all they have to do is waive the $30
a month data charge. I haven't decided what to do yet, as making a formal
complaint involves probably hiring an attorney.

Is it possible or anyone having the droid and Verizon $30 monthly charge
waived cause not fully accessible?

If so, then I assume no features could ever be updated?
Just want to use as a mini computer, outlook contacts and phone, don't need
internet.

Thanks
Tom
