The growth of wireless phone subscribers in recent years contributes to the myriad of service packages offered by the providers. With the increase of service capabilities, the fee usually increases. Often, the service terms are complicated, and the factors which determine the pricing structures become a public concern. Human factors are the primary drives in the wireless phone services and pricing. The obvious players in driving the rates are service providers and consumers; however, policy makers and investors may also play important roles in the service price. In addition, the wireless phone makers and developers could also decide the base cost of the phones, and when providers offer free phones to the new customers, cost is passed to the subscribers. This paper analyses the relationship between the wireless phone services and their pricing. We will concentrate on policy makers, service providers, and consumers. Their influences on the price of services may be critical to the future development of wireless phone technologies.
