That's where I got that idea. they can't cease using it. qualcomm has a monopoly on it. Are you saying they are continuing to use it? If so, you are agreeing with me when I wrote "But they kept on using the patented technology just the same ..." your position is that they're stealing it. they aren't. So you accept my analysis. Good. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

Usually the tech is exactly the person who chooses which trouble ticket gets attention. Any other way results in *stupid* mistakes being made. no. The next biggest mistake with trouble ticket systems is choosing one that is really good at generating reports for management and as a result very poor for dispatching troubles! That is common. ATT on the other hand was always famous for using a bureaucratic boondoggle that was designed to make upper level administration of management methods easier, without much concern about mid or lower level management efficiency, and with no concern about how it functioned at the technician level. The Bell System was an astounding bureaucracy, that even after divestiture could not be corrected even by a Board of Directors that tried hard in the 90's to change it. They eventually through up their hands and sold it to Bell South and walked away. not relevant at all. |

The problem is that the key to all this wealth is provided by Qualcomm and Qualcomm want to share in the bonanza. But Apple doesn't want to share. absolutely wrong. and it's not just apple, no matter how much you try to make it that way. qualcomm charges *everyone* (not just apple) based on the price of the entire device, which includes components not from qualcomm. that's wrong. qualcomm is only one part of a modern smartphone or tablet and they're entitled to be paid *only* for that part. under no circumstances is any company (not just qualcomm) entitled to be paid for components or technology they did not create. |

I have never even seen a telcom company with different departments for residential and business services. Some numbers may be in blocks, but that isn't based on type of service, it's base on how many lines any given customer orders. just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. verizon, pacific bell, centurylink and comcast have separate departments for business service. others do too. Routine trouble tickets are handled on a first come first serve basis, and obviously if there is a problem that puts it on hold it goes back into the que. in general, business customers will have their issue resolved much sooner than residential customers, typically within a couple of hours. it's one of the benefits for paying more. |

I think you are mistaken. Different sales departments, different marketing, and the entire customer service arena. But when it comes to top tier repair technicians, they are not differentiated.
