Verizon Discouraging Customers From Buying iPhone
We are getting reports from customers of Verizon that when they go to Verizon stores they are being discouraged from buying the iPhone. Does anyone know what this about?
Do Verizon salespeople get paid less commission than when they sell the iPhone so they are pushing the HTC, Droid, Blackberry phones?
One of the comments we have heard:
“you can’t take the battery out”
“you have to signup for iTunes in order to use the phone”
“if you need to reset the phone, you have to take it to Apple”
“Verizon stores can’t help you if you have a problem”
Most of these sound like bad excuses to give customers.

Richie Sambora on the Access Hollywood TV Show
‘Bon Jovi’ Rocker Gives 100 Voyage-Air Guitars to Active Military!
Earlier this year, Richie Sambora, world famous guitar-slinger of ‘Bon Jovi’ was given a Voyage-Air Guitar as a birthday gift.
Richie realized that this full-size guitar – because it folds – is a perfect way to bring music to our fighting forces.
Richie decided to personally purchase 100 guitars from Voyage-Air, and then set up a website where active military could register for a chance to win one of these breakthrough instruments. Recently, he began distributing them to the lucky winners.
Yesterday, Richie appeared on the TV show “Access Hollywood LIVE” – we were able to get a part of that clip: and you can click to see it below:
This Friday, August 19, Richie Sambora meets with the troops at Camp Pendleton Marine Base in Southern California, to personally thank our fighting forces for their bravery and sacrifice… and to deliver dozens of these 100 revolutionary guitars, all personally signed by Richie.
The NBC TV Shows “Access Hollywood” and ” EXTRA!” will be onsite with cameras rolling – check your local listings for the exact time of the show.
We’ll have more info and pictures next week… stay tuned!
Sincerely,
The Voyage-Air Guitar Team

Dear Victor,
On Monster.com, employers are allowed to prevent anyone who is currently unemployed from applying for a job.
It’s cruel to the millions of Americans out of work — but you can put an end to it this week.
Kelly Wiedemer, who lost her job in 2008, has launched a campaign demanding that Monster.com ban these discriminatory ads. Please click here to sign Kelly’s petition.
A nationwide backlash against the company, which treasures its reputation as a website that helps people find jobs, will force Monster.com to act.
Please sign the petition today asking Monster.com to stop discriminating against the unemployed.
Thanks for being a changemaker,
– Jess and the Change.org team
