1000x more expensive, that's what mobile internet costs in the UK compared to home internet. I'm basing that on speed and GB allowance per month.

If it was "only" 10x more expensive then it would really take off, but 1000x more expensive. Forget it.

I'm with Orange and they only bundle 3MB of data per month.

3MB per month.

It should be 50MB a day, at least. And the phone should have an auto-cut-off for when I hit the limit.

Orange used to be a leader, but now they are total market losers.

What this moron fails to understand is his own checkbook. A common failure among his ilk and most likely his wife, or significant other, pays the household bills.

If those who would normally buy his product (or it's end-of-the-line package) no longer feel they have the funds to do so, if they feel they need to save more, if the feel they need to cut back on their rampant consumerism, well, he wont sell his product at levels he'd planned, he will lose money, budgets will be cut and his business will dwindle. That's Economics 101: Supply and Demand and it's being played-out,in spades, world wide right now.

I just love to see those who think they are insulated from economics get their first real lesson that leads to the common corporate agonizing reappraisal. He will, others have and he can't stop it. The worldwide market reset has been triggered and it's about damn time.

All you IT gurus better learn a little low tech gardening. You're going to need to know how to use a non-electronic shovel just to be able to feed yourself.

And forget about investing in gold. People with brass will take your gold. And I'm wagering few reading this have the meanest notion of what that really means.
