These days, we wonder how we ever existed without mobile phones.  It is vital artery of communication that is used to connect to family and friends. And selecting Verizon as your prime plan for interacting with others assures ultimate satisfaction.  Verizon provides America's largest and most reliable 4G LTE network.

Walking down the street, sitting in a meeting, attending a lecture, waiting at a subway stop….no matter where you turn, there it is...that bright colored screen glowing into our faces encouraging us to communicate via the written word instead of verbal conversation.

Whether you praise the creators of these miraculous contraptions or if you despise the thought of being ignored while your significant other taps away on their smartphone’s key boards, millions of these gadgets permeate the environment.  That simply means cell phones are unquestionably absolutely everywhere.
