Re: I don't see a problem with exclusive phone deals. The real issue is that the iPhone is exclusive to AT&T, *and* that the Storm is exclusive to VZW. Two specific smartphones, each exclusive to a different cell provider. Never mind that there are other BlackBerries (some of which are, in fact, exclusive to AT&T Mobility, such as the BlackBerry Bold), and that the Storm/VZW deal is in *direct response* to the iPhone/AT&T Mobility deal extension. I've been a VZW (CDMA) customer, and a Virgin Mobile customer, and I know several AT&T Mobility and Sprint customers. When reliable coverage has mattered (especially in the area between the Carolinas and NYC), VZW wins hands-down. VZW actually kicked both their butts in Las Vegas, too. If a carrier isn't reliable, it doesn't matter what features the handset has. And it's reliability that VZW gets right. |
