When cell phones were first introduced the price of a one-minute long-distance call was several times the cost of a land-line call. Does that mean that at time of their introduction, cell phones increased the cost of long-distance calling?
No, the price of a long distance call was not increased. Using cellular signals to make that long distance call incurred a higher fee. The technology was new, so using it was more expensive-similar to all new technology, that gets less expensive with time.
