The iPhone wars: AT&T vs. Verizon

Posted in iPhone News by admin. Published November 15th, 2009

AT&T have filed a second lawsuit against Verizon Wireless, claiming “irreparable harm,” they have asked a District Court Judge to force Verizon to pull its latest TV ad. The ad in question is where Verizon have placed the iPhone on the “island of misfit toys,” something that has not gone down well with the network carrier.

The main issue with the ad is to do with the AT&T’s network coverage, Verizon makes some claims that AT&T say are in fact false. According to Fortune Brainstorm Tech, AT&T have decided to put the record straight and let their customers know that it is only them and not Verizon who offer the most popular smartphone, the iPhone.

AT&T went on to ad that Verizon do not offer a handset with access to more than 100,000 applications. AT&T also showed a new map, one that they feel Verizon should show instead of the misleading one. So why is AT&T taking things so badly, we aim to explain it as simple as possible below.

The map that Verizon came up with showed that AT&T coverage had a huge amount of white space, this could be misleading as customers would think that AT&T did not have any coverage in that area, this is untrue.

Although AT&T may not have any 3G coverage in that area, customers would still have access to the 2G networks, allowing customers to still gain access to the Internet.
