We went to a Verizon building where we interviewed Michelle who is in charge of Verizon's wireless network in New York City and David who was a PR representative. They explained how a cell phone works. Once the signal leaves the cell phone they enter a room or building called the switching station. Then the signal would then be transported to the phone on the other end. They also showed us these switching rooms where a bunch of computers and machines contained our voice mails, text messages and calls. David said these machine were the brains . They also explained that the reason there is an early termination fee is because they are subsidizing these phones and if they just sell you the phone they wont be making any profit. the early termination fee pays for the phone and they said that it is the same amount as if you stayed with the plan till the end of your contract. Also they both continued to sell their company and explain how their network had the best service coverage.
