AT&T CEO is Not Worried About Losing iPhone Exclusivity

by Guest Author on Sep 22, 2010

I like people with confidence. They maintain an aura of cool while some intense situations are presented to them. Then once in a while their confidence is largely mistaken as delusion. Is that what is happening with the CEO of AT&T and his latest claim of not caring about losing iPhone exclusivity? Not really.

Market Watch has a report that cites Randall Stephenson telling investors that basically the majority of current iPhone users are in long contracts as it stands. That’s certainly true however those “long” contracts are less than 2 years and will eventually need to be renewed to stay long term… Read More

by Guest Author on Sep 22, 2010

I just knew it. I knew it wouldn’t be long until the latest Verizon iPhone rumor hit the web waves and I’d be writing about it shortly thereafter. I did not think it would be as concrete as this appears to be.

An analyst with Susquehanna Financial Group mentioned in a note to suppliers that Apple is preparing to build 3 million CDMA capable iPhones by December. This is to keep on track with an apparent early 2011 release. Are you getting a headache yet? Read More

Let’s Be Friends On Twitter

by Sebastien on Sep 21, 2010

I’ve been thinking about that for a while but for some reason I never got to go ahead with it. I just created a list of iDB readers on Twitter. If you read this blog and if you’re on Twitter, then you should be on the list!

So far I have only 3 people in this list. That’s because I don’t know your Twitter username. To get on the list, simply ask me to add you on Twitter by sending a tweet such as “@SebastienPage Hey add me to your iDB list”… Read More

 

Only 23% of AT&T Customers Would Switch for a Verizon iPhone

by Sebastien on Sep 21, 2010

A new survey by Credit Suisse shows that only 23% of AT&T customers would be willing to switch to Verizon if the carrier got the iPhone. The good old talk about a Verizon iPhone. Sigh. It seems I am the only believing there won’t be a Verizon iPhone next year.

According to this survey, 23% would switch to Verizon, 3% would switch to Sprint, and only 2% would switch to T-Mobile. 9% are not sure what they would do. If you do the math, that leaves 63% of people staying with AT&T, most likely because they are satisfied… Read More
