  • 10 Reasons Apple Will Sell iPhone Via More U.S. Telcos [View article]
    That Apple would love to have other carriers, especially Verizon, carry the IPhone seems so obvious as not to require comment.

    As I understand it, Apple would have preferred to have been with Verizon to begin with, but Verizon was unwilling to give up its iron clad control over downloads and pricing plans.

    Thus, it seems to this observer, that the real question is whether Verizon has changed their mind given the success of the IPhone.

    I recently switched to AT&T solely to get an IPhone and noted that Verizon sent a multiple choice poll asking about my experience. There were 5 or 6 questions, but they seemed clearly to want to know if I switched because of the IPhone and whether I would return under any circumstances other than their offering an IPhone. That at least hints that they are mulling over the idea.
