Re: So what's next?

said by NOVA_Guy:

About the only prediction I haven't heard regarding who the iPhone will go to next is that it's coming to Sprint...

Let's face it: unless someone here is an Apple insider who's willing to share knowledge with us, nobody has the slightest clue about what's going to happen next. The amazing thing is how much this generates various opinions: one person saying they don't want "data hogging" iPhones on their network, many others (including myself, at times) saying they don't like AT&T's network.

There's only one prediction that I think we can all make at this point: Apple will take the iPhone and make agreements with the carrier/carriers whom they feel will financially benefit them most in the long term. When it comes down to it, that's the only logical course of action for them. They won't go to Verizon because their customers want them to; they won't stay with AT&T because AT&T execs beg and plead. They will do whatever they do because they will be following a strategy that will make them the most money. They're a business, after all. Money is the bottom line for them.
Actually, you'd think that Apple would take the iPhone and make agreements with the carrier/carriers whom they feel will financially benefit them most in the current or next quarter. That's how it seems to be done these days.... Do worry about long term, only worry about the current or next quarter or so...
