Cellular Web Marketplace? How can I allow my customers to purchase by their cell phone? What companies do this?

Q. I want to have a way for customers to purchase from their cell phones, this could be the purchase of a wallpaper image I've designed as an artist by 3G network. Or even some of my literary work as a writer, by way of text message payment. How can I implement these new technologies into my own business and what companies offer services similar to this in the USA? Please Help: I appreciate everyone's expertise, thanks!

A. well your wallpaper will probably be made for multiple graphic sizes as all devices are not made equal (the 3g network makes no sense, works on all mobile phones). Anyways I would look for a company that allows you to sell your art because if want to create your own its expensive. Search around I can't recommend any.

What does an international student need to buy a cell phone in the USA, besides money of course?

Q. I hear as an international student I must have the social security number to buy a cell phone here in the States. Is that true? or How actually it works for a foreigner.

A. First, i would talk to your provider you have now and see what kind of arrangements could be made. They should be able to point you into the correct direction.

Is it illegal in CA for cell phone companies to charge early contract termination fees?

Q. Last June, an Alameda County Superior Court judge ruled that it was against CA law for cell phone companies to charge early contract termination charges. The ruling was preliminary and lawyers for Sprint were going to have a chance to file a rebuttal before the judge considered making the ruling permanent.

Does anyone know if this ruling was made permanent, or if the cell phone industry appealed it if it was?

A. I believe you may have your facts a bit wrong. I think the litigation you are referencing is Gatton v. T-Mobile USA. The question which was first presented to the Alameda County Superior Court was whether T-Mobile could compel arbitration. The superior court ruled that it could not, and that ruling was affirmed on appeal in June, 2007 (Gaston v. T-Mobile USA (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 571.) T-Mobile then kept litigating, and losing, until the US Supreme Court denied cert in May, 2008.

As far as I can tell, the case is back in the superior court, and no judgment on the merits of the complaint has yet been entered. There is certainly no subsequent appellate litigation either decided or pending.
