If you want to start your own pre-paid phone network, you shouldn't steal Freedom Wireless's way of doing it.
To "steal" a point made all the time on Slashdot: Freedom Wireless was not deprived of the use of this method. And yes, I just used "steal" the way you did, but such imprecision is only okay when no one is getting sued.
Also, do you actually know that BCGI learned about this method from Freedom Wireless, and if so that they wouldn't have come up with it on their own? If not then there goes the other half of "steal".
Unfortunately, the patent system doesn't even require that half.
