AT&T iPhone & Verizon Motorola Droid

It seems that the jousting between AT&T and Verizon shows no signs of abating any time soon (you’ll find links to our coverage of the ongoing spat below) and now we two new AT&T Apple iPhone ads that ask ‘Can your phone do that?’ which, whilst not specifically mentioning the (Verizon) Motorola Droid, is patently intended to dress the Droid down a notch or two (Apple Ad Dresses Driod Down – now there’s a tabloid headline for you).

You can view the two new AT&T Apple iPhone ads bwlow but, for those of you who are still in the dark concerning the war of words between AT&T and Verizon you’ll find that the below reading will serve to put you pretty extensively in the know.

AT&T’s ads are off target. The original Verizon “there’s a map for that” ad is talking about 3G service, not general cell phone service. Of course AT&T provides service to a large portion of the nation but that’s not what Verizon ads are talking about. It is true that AT&T is way behind Verizon in terms of 3G coverage.
