AT&T finally gonna get what's coming. Big Red rolling out the power plays with fantastic commercials and a huge show to Apple that someone else can do it better. Love it!

This is crazy from a company that advertised more bars in more places and the fewest dropped calls. Cry me a river.

I'm no huge Verizon fan, but I've got to take their side on this one. AT&T needs to go back to their Bell Labs and work on the network.

Calm down. The iphone is hot as ever. I don't know where you are getting your info, but AT&T's Third quarter sales numbers would dispute your assertion. Bash AT&T's network all you like, but the iphone. I don't think so. 3.2 million post paid activations of the iphone in the 3rd quarter (1,280,000 were new customers to AT&T).

The iphone is still a threat and the est thing Verizon can do to neutralize it is to get it for themselves.

More bars in more places compared Cingular prior to the AT&T Wireless buyout versus Cingular after the buyout. I read the fine print in the commercial clearly and I don't think the commercials should have been pulled. The fact that they were forced to pull them means that AT&T has a slight chance in their legal action. Basically what they are saying is that people are too stupid to read the fine print and just the impression that there is no AT&T coverage (not just no 3G coverage) is grounds to remove the commercial. Which is why I think AT&T IS doing the right thing by giving this lawsuit a shot. I personally think it is groundless but one never knows with judges. If they were forced to remove their commercials because people are appar...

Neither of us are legal experts, but I agree with you on the ATT has no legal case. I also think in the long term this will hurt ATT's reputation. And even possibly push Verizon over the 100m customer mark, I mean they're already at what, 92m customers!???!!!
