AT&T and Verizon Wireless Bury the Hatchet

Today AT&T and Verizon Wireless said that they have canceled two separate pieces of litigation between the two companies. AT&T has dropped its lawsuit against Verizon (filed in Georgia) over the "Map for That" ad campaign. The campaign compared AT&T and Verizon's 3G coverage maps in television commercials and print advertisements. AT&T said the ads were misleading, though a judge ruled that they were "sneaky", but not misleading. In response, Verizon has dropped a lawsuit it filed against AT&T in July 2009 seeking to declare Verizon's "Most Dependable Network: claims were true. AT&T had objected to that lawsuit with one of its own at the time. All the lawsuits have been dropped.
