Preloaded Goodies from Big Red

This is where there's a love-hate relationship with Verizon. Verizon Wireless offers Get It Now a platform that allows you to download and use applications such as:

• ringtones
• music
• games
• applications
• games
• and instant messaging.

You'd think this would be great but there's a huge catch. You won't be allowed to download content to your Verizon smartphone outside of the Get It Now system.

Why?

Purely for financial reasons. Verizon has exclusivity agreements with their content providers...welcome to the Big Red walled garden.

Don't even get us started on the debacle a few years ago where customers where incurring internet charges that were added to their phone bill at the end of the month. Ultimately, Verizon Wireless payed a record-setting $25 million to the U.S. Treasury for these mystery data charges. Remember $1.99 added over 106 million subscribers can add up very fast for Big Red in profits.
