This may be a good point however as reality has shown At&t Wireless wasn’t a very “large” company without the loyal Cingular customers they kidnapped. Now that they bought T-Mobile their profit margine must be very low. LARGEST COMPANY IN AMERICA / AT&T…all the way to the dump!!

LET’S GET EM BIG RED!!

I don't know how true this story is, but if it's true I think it will be a good thing for both iPhone and Android users. If Verizon get's the iPhone then the iPhone users will have a choice of networks. Android devices on Verizon's network will have to compete directly with the iPhone which means some cheaper if not free low end Android phones and some phenominal high end Android phones to compete directly with the iPhone. When you take AT&T out of the formula everyone wins.

Just for the record I'm not a big fan of the iPhone and I love Android but that's just me, it doesn't mean there is anything wrong with the iPhone or me. It just means that Android is what suits my needs best.

yes ATT had 10 more million customers but VZW had the lead prior to ATT merging with Cingular.

not exactly…. considering android has been around since 2005 and honestly Symbian is better than both but the FCC is not a fan of Nokia and doesnt approve many of the devices that are available.

It is carrier vs carrier but with that said Apple and At&t have been beaten up for network issues. Truth be told the engineering of the iPhone and how it connects to its network is the real issue. It is a bandwith hog and with the number of devices on At&t's network it is hard to keep up with the demand. VZW will have the same issues as At&t because no network can handle the influx of users that iphone generated. “Droid” has been given away buy one get one since a few weeks after launch. capability they are competitors as far as mass appeal Apple still owns the market. At&t would benefit from the loss of a few subscribers if VZW got iphone, VZW's network would take a hit At&t would be running smoother and the funny thing is if VZW didnt buy Alltel they would still be 10million + subs behind At&t. At&t lost their claim to largest carrier after the Alltel merger. just my 2 pennies.

I'd just like to note that I can play Robot Unicorn Attack on my droid with 2.2. So screw iPhone and their games!

This article is the biggest crock of BS about the iPhone. This is the only place on the entire internet that is posting this “story.” Give me a freaking break. I'm following the iphone story for myself and came across this.

Why is this article even in here? Really who really cares about the icrap? I will admit even before the rumors of the iphone came out, I was hoping that apple would put out a phone, but after seeing the iphone it has never moved me to own one. It's an entertainment device that cannot do it's primary job, hold a phone conversation.
