    I updated my Verizon Tour. It lists v1.1 as a downgrade and App World disappeared from my Applications list. Now I have no way to purchase and download new applications. Well tested Blackberry and Verizon. Time for your QE staff to consider a new use case.

    @DownfieldComa: That's a typo. When I signed up last year it was a 1 time $99 fee. I haven't received any emails reminding me to renew or anything.

    After checking out their promo commercial on their YouTube channel

    ) I see now why it costs $60. They need to cover the costs of hiring the amazingly convincing SUPER HOTT chick who i would so-give-my-number-to-in-the-club, and cost of production work on that commercial that puts anything Billy Mays to shame.

    Oh and BTW, that $60 price tag only covers a 1 year subscription: [www.privusmobile.info]

    @kalenoble: I was confused too, but methinks that the low price is per month, and the $60 is yearly subscription (??). From [www.privusmobile.com] :



    Which is even worse than the $3.43 that Tristan Smith came up with. $5/mo = $60 per year tho.

    Why not just not answer any (800),(877),(888), or any other strange numbers. Works just as great.

    @Mikestan: Unfortunately my bank, dealership and car insurance companies all have 866 or 800 area codes when they call me.. I probably get more illegitimate calls from "regular" area codes, but by "regular" I of course mean Alabama and Kansas.


    (Apparently they are very concerned about my car's warranty in Alabama and Kansas).

    That is something I've been wondering about recently: Why does my landline display the caller's name, and not my cell? Seems backwards, especially in 2009.
