Japan has the same contracts in place here (complete with Early termination fees); however, when Vodafone eschewed logic and introduced a more international version of it's phones to the 3G market in Japan, the Japanese populace still reacted and jumped ship en masse. An insane number (like 20% of their user base IIRC).
Users that are angry enough will still jump ship, regardless of fees. -nick ------------------------------------- You are subscribed as lists-ip () insecure org To manage your subscription, go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/?listname=ip Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/interesting-people/
