NEW YORK (AP) – Verizon’s Share Everything plan looks like it’s good for the company’s shares.

The parent of the nation’s largest cellphone company on Thursday reported a blowout number of new devices on its network, boosted by the revolutionary plan, introduced four months ago. The plan made it cheaper for households to add wireless service to tablets and laptops.

Verizon Wireless added a net 1.5 million devices to contract-based plans in the third quarter, more than it has in many years. Analysts were expecting it to add about 900,000.
