I've spotted a few small instances of telcos doing some minor innovation in pricing and bundling models for otherwise undifferentiated access businesses. This could become a pattern. First, The Register has a report on how BT are doing tiered access charges for WiFi. T-Mobile in the UK have their MixIt plans (Flash beware!) which mix pre- and post-paid. And of course, Verizon in New York is bundling, ahem, "free" WiFi with regular DSL access.
Could we be about to see an explosion of new pricing plans for metered access which mix time, geography, access technology, and payment methods?
