AT&T purportedly looking to push iPhone exclusivity to 2011 {Engadget Mobile}
Apr 15th 2009 12:50PM You're right..."in the United States." The Verizon customer base pales in comparison to the worldwide GSM customer base, which is over 3.5 billion (yes, billion). Besides, there are plenty of Americans jumping to AT&T for the iPhone, notwithstanding some hold-outs who either love their current carrier (or more likely their current monthly price) or who hate AT&T for one reason or another.
I'm not saying that Apple won't consider making a CDMA version of the iPhone, but as long as AT&T keeps bumping out their exclusivity agreement then they're contractually obligated NOT to. In fact, if AT&T is successful in pushing their exclusivity to 2011, even people signing up for Verizon contracts this afternoon won't be locked in by the time that exclusivity expires.
And don't forget that Apple has proven to be amazingly stubborn--some might say Sony-like--about hardware configurations in the past. If they don't want to use CDMA chipsets, they won't. They did it before with 3G chips and continue to do it with mini DisplayPort and Firewire on their computer products.
I find all of those to be a far more compelling arguments than arguing for a user base that is pretty insignificant in the global scheme of things!

Apr 15th 2009 12:07PM Would Apple really try to bring a CDMA version of their handset to market just for Verizon? Something tells me they're fine with a single (GSM) model.
Who Is the Sexiest Sportscaster of 2009? {Asylum}
Jan 30th 2009 11:14AM I've always been a fan of Bonnie Bernstein, but Erin Andrews gets my vote. I'd never heard of Molly Sullivan before, but I guess that's because she doesn't get much play on the East Coast...I wonder what happened to her eyebrows, though. Where'd they go?!

Jan 12th 2009 9:32PM I noticed the missing "a" after I submitted the comment, but that's a pretty minor oversight. Still, I guess my editing skills are lacking. And no offense meant to those she-males or gender-challenged. But really, how many of them wear jock straps?

Jan 12th 2009 1:08PM Wait, when weren't choose-your-own adventure books for nerds? Saying "it's like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but for nerds" is like saying "it's like jock strap, but for dudes."

Nov 7th 2008 11:23PM Did I miss something? That's not an image of the Tilt, that is the Touch Pro (Fuze, whatever).

HTC's Dream again rumored to be first Android phone {Engadget Mobile}
Mar 20th 2008 9:59AM This has been pointed out in earlier posts, but maybe the mysterious HTC CONV100 mentioned two weeks ago via a filing with the Bluetooth SIG is the Android phone. Seems plausible, at least until further info about either surfaces.
