Verizon’s crank
Posted on:: May 29th, 2008
It turns out that if you’re a Verizon cell phone customer, you should dial *228 every month or so. It updates your software and the list of available towers (or something).
Given the totalitarian control Verizon and the other carriers exert over “your” cell phone, I don’t see why they can’t just do that automatically. Go figure.
Actually, figuring is probably just a waste of time.
