ATT Swings Back at Verizon, Showing How Its iPhone Is Great for Procrastinators
The arrival of the Verizon iPhone has provided a much-needed boost to the industry.
No, not the tech industry. The ad industry.
Verizon is attacking AT&T, AT&T is attacking Verizon, and T-Mobile is attacking both of them. Only Sprint is staying out of the fray, taking its mother’s advice that if it doesn’t have anything nice to say, it should perhaps just say nothing at all.
