Is it just me.or do they all seem to have swung to lign up almost perfectly on a line. USA came down and Japan came up to match up just right.

Yeah!
Eventually the price should stabilize at the correct price if the market pricing works.
Japans economy is hurting bad so all their prices will go up.

This is how it should be in a modern society; not only affordable prices but generally access to services -with options to choose service providers, should be available no matter where you live.

I don't know about other countries laws and regulations but at least in Finland connectivity has been a necessity from the early 2000's like electricity and water every household must be able to have access to affordably.
