Marco Arment on iPhone vs. Android

Apple’s feeling threatened by Android, as they should be. So they’re systematically targeting and eliminating major reasons why someone would choose Android over iPhone.

But they haven’t yet hit the biggest one: availability on different U.S. carriers, specifically a CDMA edition for Verizon.

Bingo. If the iPhone came to Verizon tomorrow, I would seriously consider ditching my Droid and paying full price for it.

FCC Unsatisfied by Verizon's Response

If you haven’t been following this story already, the linked Engadget piece will bring you up to date. I really enjoyed this sentence from the last paragraph of the FCC’s letter:

The bottom line is that wireless companies can truly earn their desired long-term commitments from consumers by focusing primarily on developing innovative products, maintaining affordable prices, and providing excellent customer service.

Well put.
