I take it Apple is getting ready to open it up to another provider and AT&T wants to make it more painful to jump ship. I heard they are working on a Verizon version.
If so, AT&T is toast. Their network sucks.
That's nice thing #286 about Android. Being an open source OS, there are more than one hardware vendor that supports it and you can go to any carrier.
Steve Jobs' snarkiness aside.
ATT isn’t even an option where I live(a rural area).
I’ve never even seen anyone use an IPhone. lol
I saw one at a Best Buy, Thought it was cool looking, but I don’t like the ‘touch’ interface. Damn thing will stay filthy with fingerprints. I’d be compulsively cleaning it if I used one.
Yep, AT&T is making current customers a deal they can’t refuse...But, I promise that as soon as possible I am dropping AT&T like a hot potato....The signal strength STINKS...Never make a call that lasts more than a couple minutes without dropping, and I live in a high level area...
The AT&T ship is already listing and taking on water. Apple already has a Taiwan manufacturer ready to make the CDMA iPhone for Verizon, and T-Mobile already has the GSM iPhone in Europe. It’s just a matter of time. I have friends who unlocked their iPhones and put them on T-Mobile here in Atlanta. Unfortunately the current hardware won’t work on Verizon.
Verizon offering the iPhone has been rumored since 2008. Fun fact: Apple first offered the iPhone to Verizon, who turned it down.
