Would at&t's exclusive deal with Apple for the regular iPhone prevent other US carriers from reselling this device? I would love to use this if sold and supported through T-Mobile USA or Verizon Wireless.
T-Mobile, the smallest of the four giants could certainly use this in their lineup and I'm sure welcome by many as an alternative to at&t.
What does this have to do with a ban on cell phone use while driving?
And to answer your unrelated question, there is no "Legal" way to use an iPhone with T-Mobile in the U.S (And even if you were to illegally unlock the iPhone, it would be limited to EDGE speeds), and it is technologically impossible to use it with either Verizon Wireless or Sprint. AT&T's network and devices run on the GSM platform, while VZW and Sprint use CDMA.
