Verizon launches Nokia 2366i
Looks like Nokia's hooked up Verizon with a new CDMA handset, with the carrier now offering Nokia's 2366i phone under its InPulse pay-as-you-go brand -- and, unlike some other Nokia-branded phones on Verizon, this one's actually manufactured by Nokia, not its buddy Pantech. As the handset itself goes, the basic black 2366i is a flip-phone number, packing a 160 x 128 screen with 65,000 colors, Bluetooth, a speakerphone, and voice dialing, all in a 3.7 ounce package -- though you'll have to make do without a camera or other bells 'n whistles. Then again, it also won't break the bank, retailing for $89.99 after setup fee with no long-term contract needed to get it at that price.VZW prepaid code thief gets hard time
Nothing quite like six years in the pokey to make you rethink your actions, we say. That's what one wayward Verizon Wirelss employee got thrown at him last week (70 months, to be exact) for fleecing his employer to the tune of $21 million, stealing a handful of wireless access codes, reselling them at a discount, and helping himself to the revenue stream. Adding insult to injury, the guy owes Verizon that $21 million back plus a bonus $300,000 in damages. By our rough calculations, the heist works out to a mind-boggling 210,000,000 hot daytime domestic minutes -- so if you happened to recently scoop up a few INpulse cards for a song, you might owe yourself a quick slap on the wrist.
