"The consensus view is that it does; however, we couldn't find compelling evidence that this is the case. We conclude that there is only a 50% probability that it ends in 2010. Next, we try to determine whether AT&T bids for another year of exclusivity if exclusivity does end in 2010. We conclude that they would and that they can afford to compensate Apple such that Apple would be economically indifferent. Our approach yields a 25% probability for this outcome. Taken together, we see a 75% probability that AT&T keeps exclusivity for another year."
I conclude that there's a 100% probability that the person who wrote that is the laughing stock of whomever sits next to him at work.  -- The Coyote captured the RR! Roadrunner Rick is now Comcastic! |
 en102Canadian, eh? join:2001-01-26 Valencia, CA | Until Apple manufactures an iPhone that supports AWS (T-Mobile) or CDMA 1x/EVDO, it wouldn't really matter if AT&T is the exclusive carrier or not.
Canadians did it the other way (with Olympics as a reason). To get rid of Rogers exclusivity.. they built a 3G UMTS/HSPA 850/1900 network, and behold... the iPhone is now theirs. T-Mobile, Sprint, VZW, etc 'could' do the same, but I don't think it will happen. -- Canada = Hollywood North |
