CNN: NYC moves to identify, stamp out cell phone dead spots
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the city will try to root out cell phone dead spots by asking people to report places where they can't get service.
"Cell phones generally provide a great service," Bloomberg said Monday. "The trouble is that every once in a while cell phones don't work -- and cell phones don't work exactly at the wrong time, or in places that you are, and it's very annoying."
My spin: No cell phone dead spots in NYC? What great news. But I wonder how long it will take to make NYC a "dead spot" free zone. Guess what...I just realized that this and other improvements could all be part of an upgrade for the Republican National Convention next year.
