562958	2007-06-25 17:23:00	Any one read the article in Monday's Herald about the high cost of calling a cellphone. It goes to show how gutless our government and the Commerce Commission are. When I got my first mobile in the late 80's (a brick) it cost 72 cents to call a mobile (on a normal plan). Today it costs 71 cents (on a normal plan). Yet some executive from Telecom had the cheek to say that rates are coming down ! Regards Digby	Digby (677)

562960	2007-06-25 22:10:00	They have dropped in price :D by one cent :pand over a nearly twenty year period. A pity inflation doesn't run at a similar rate... Maybe Telecom should run the Treasury and Michael Cullen/Alan Bollard should work for them...	johcar (6283)

How about comparing it with a bottle of milk over that period. PS it only costs me 49cents on a prepay plan to call other mobiles and landlines	robbyp (2751)
