Verizon (VZ): 'Steady-Eddie'
2009-08-26 13:00:00 "Our favorite, most steady U.S. telecom recommendation is Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ)," says Martin Weiss.He explains, "We’v-e always liked their steady-Eddie business and their tradition of paying handsome, predictable dividends." Here's the latest from the "conservative portfolio" section of his The Safe Money Report."The traditional U.S. telecom sector has been viewed as a stodgy backwater. Investors looked down their noses at what used to be called the Regional Bell Operating Companies. But that’s just fine with us. "What’s more, many of the Baby Bells are now transforming their business by expanding into new, growing markets — without shedding their high-dividend ways. "Verizon is the product of mergers over the years that combined the old NYNEX, Bell Atlantic, MCI, and GTE. Yes, the traditional landline business is slowly fading and Verizon plans another 8,000 layoffs in that...

"My investment thesis for Verizon is all about growth in its wireless operating segment. Smartphone penetration, which is more profitable for Verizon, is still small and growing very rapidly.

Verizon Contemplating iPhone After Exiting Customer Reviews.
2009-03-06 01:44:00 Back in September 2008, rumors surfaced that Verizon was in talks with Apple to bring the iPhone to their network, but the rumor didn’t hold too much water due to an apparent exclusivity deal with Apple and AT&T which was said to last until 2010. More reports came out recently backing up Verizon’s interest in the iPhone, but it is unlikely that AT&T will allow Apple to subsidize the phone under other carriers in the US before their contract expires. The most recent sign of this, discovered by BGR, is shown quite blatantly in Verizon’s Service-Cancellation-Survey. Three of the…

I’ve been given to understand there’s a software issue with the thing, but I’ve not found a workable solution, yet. One thing I did try was a program called “Volume Care”, which supposedly solved the issue for a lot of folks. Not me, here, however. Anyone seen this issue, and have an idea I might try?
