EU To Standardize and Lower Roaming Rates

When the European Roaming Rate regulation, currently in published draft stage finally becomes law in the EU, consumers and transborder type who hop-scotch around the European continent will finally become happier.

This is a measure that will clearly make life easier, but I fully expect the USA based GSM carriers to lag behind the EU's own in embracing the concept of cheaper roaming. Why? Because they can and will want to continue to squeeze out every penny that can from USA customers who roam internationally.
