Few things I wish carriers and manufacturers would do:

Manufacturers….just make ONE version of the phone. Get out of the business of assisting the carriers on messing them up.

Carriers: Accept and deliver standard functionality as the manufacturer had intended. STOP crippling the functionality of the phone.

Carriers: Stop nickling and diming us. Make it ONE price….voice/data included. Include family plans that allow unlimited(*) data for smartphones. STOP providing your own services. Your NOT good at providing content. Others are better. Sell the service, not add ons like Vcast or VZNavigator. Let the others take care of the content. Instead of worrying about what a device will DO to your network, safeguard your network on what devices CAN do. Take a lesson from landline broadband ISP’s.
