  1. @ronseybold So yesterday, you meant to say the Fire is a win for Apple "users" -- those who buy Amazon stock? OK, no argument there :-)

  13. "Up In The Air" is George Clooney at his understated best with a dynamite supporting cast and a script that's achingly real and funny too.
  14. Talk about a strange wish list. Funny too! "What I Want For Christmas!" from the staff at BusinessVoice (VIDEO) http://bit.ly/6pGr1p
  15. I know I'm about a year too late, but this is some funny stuff (VIDEO) http://bit.ly/3fW0M3
  16. @ronseybold So you're saying AT&T has ONE price on the web but another CHEAPER price in the store for same plan, phones and features?
  17. @ronseybold We can swap bills anytime. My monthly rate from Sprint for 5 phones is $189.
  18. @ronseybold No shouting here... just simple math. $189 vs. $419 a month. And I'm not the only one with five phones wanting data and text.
