Is U.S. Mobile Service Too Expensive?

Methodology really matters when conducting trans-national studies of issues such as the typical price of mobile services. A recent analysis of international mobile phone prices conducted and released by the
New America Foundation concludes that the United States has among the highest prices for mobile phone
services in the world.


An analysis of that study's methodology, however, suggests that U.S. consumers would pay far more if they faced the pricing plans from other “low cost” countries, says George S. Ford, Chief Economist of the Phoenix Center for Advanced Legal and Economic Public Policy .Studies.
