AT&T: iPhone Customers Not Ready For Life In Verizon’s Slow Lane

by Rgeezy on 01/11/2011

The Verizon iPhone might not be official yet, but AT&T’s already firing an opening salvo in the war of words. Things are about to get nasty folks.

Speaking to Business Insider, AT&T PR head Larry Solomon couldn’t resist commenting upon the prospect of a Verizon iPhone by saying that he wasn’t “sure iPhone users are ready for life in the slow lane,” while noting that AT&T’s GSM-based network is faster than Verizon’s for 3G speeds.

That’s actually not debatable, but for most users, the speed advantages of AT&T’s 3G network are negligible… and my guess is that many customers would be more than happy to give up a few kb/s downstream if they could trade them for Verizon’s coverage and reliability. What do you guys think?

Motorolla Goes Ham at CES, Releases New Tablet and Phones

by Rgeezy on 01/11/2011

Looking to up its market share and go head-to-head with the big boys, Motorola dropped three new products at this year’s Consumer Electronic Show. The maker of Verizon’s Droid dropped two new smartphones, the Droid Bionic, and the super-powerful, dual-core-processor-powered Atrix. Then it went ahead and announced its Xoom tablet, which is running Google’s yet-to-be-released Android 3.0 “Honeycomb” software. Do we smell a massacre? Eh, not really, but we’re amped nonetheless.
