verizon and mac

[Charles Shere]

I wrote "Toni" at Verizon to complain about their dropping Mac support, 
and within a few hours received a reply from John, Verizon Wireless 
Data Technical Support. He wrote, in part,

So there you have it. If and when I find a company that covers my area, 
which is a little remote, and that supports Macintosh, I'll drop 
Verizon quick -- letting them know why, of course.
