    As I already told you, no. The difference is probably in the amount of fees
    each carrier charges, that the FCC allows them to charge, to recover certain
    regulatory costs. (Wireless number portability being one of them - I forget
    what the others are.

    Very informative and interesting. In today's competitive market, I
    wonder why other carriers don't compare fees in their ad-campaigns.
    The cellular market is heavily dotted with teens.....
