Verizon Going To "Focus On Data" In 2003
Posted by Janak Parekh in "NEWS" @ 06:00 AM
"Verizon Wireless will focus this year on increasing revenue from the side of its business that doesn't involve voice calls, the chief executive of parent company Verizon Communications said Monday. 'We are really going to focus on data' in 2003, CEO Ivan Seidenberg told analysts attending Monday's Merrill Lynch Global Communications Conference. Verizon Wireless, which has 32.5 million subscribers, is a joint venture between Verizon Communications and U.K.-based wireless carrier Vodafone."
Let's hope that means more than just a camera phone, which is all this article talks about. Verizon is becoming more and more conspicuous as the wireless provider without all the "cool gadgets", excepting a few color BREW-enabled phones. I wouldn't care, but Verizon has superior coverage than any competitor in the NY metro area.
