How long can it be 'til Hilton begins to make some of the mentioned changes, and charge for the enhancements? After all, they persist in making outrageous telephone charges to those few guests who are not using a cell phone, callback service or toll-free access, and charging - sometimes exhorbitantly - for broadband Internet access. (Same access I get for free in their lower-band hotels, yet.)

Profit centers? Sure. Price-gouging? Tactically OK, strategically stupid.
