      You aren’t, but it’s likely some people have 2 or even 3 cell network connected devices (phone, tablet, watch, car, etc). As that articles notes it’s SIM cards not people. Not that $1.50 is any better…

      Also, that $3.50 was a South Park joke.

        Oh, I definitely got the South Park reference!

        I just got curious about the math anyway, then very, very angry. Another source indicated something like 300 million people with cell phones in the country, but it wasn’t clear how many of those are customers of the affected carriers.
