Verizon Wireless opens to other phones
Verizon Wireless plans to open its network to devices other than the ones hand-picked by the company, a move that could expand the features available on mobile phones and give the second-largest U.S. wireless carrier a response to a phone software project led by Google Inc.
The decision, announced Tuesday, means that customers would be able to buy devices of their own choosing and run them on Verizon's network. Traditionally, wireless providers like Verizon let customers pick only carrier-approved devices, with carrier-approved software features. The model has some benefits for consumers, because many of the available phones are subsidized by the wireless provider. That means devices that would otherwise cost hundreds of dollars are available for under $100 or even for free.
