Verizon’s Attack Ad on the iPhone and AT&T

by Gary on November 9th, 2009

In the USA right now, Verizon Wireless is on a full front assault right now on the iPhone and AT&T. They are pumping millions into a marketing campaign that is exploiting the “weaknesses” of the iPhone, but more importantly the lackluster 3G network of AT&T (oh, and also promoting the Motorola DROID).

Verizon’s Clever Attack Ad on the iPhone and AT&T: Misfit Toys

When I first saw the following commercial, I laughed! It’s definitely well produced, and highlights the embarrassing AT&T 3G network more than anything. Too bad the iPhone is caught in the crossfire. Enjoy:

This commercial got me thinking about one thing–the Bell and and Telus 3G HSPA+ network. One thing we haven’t touched on is how well the network is performing. Specifically, how is your reception when you’re underground, or in areas where Rogers/Fido would typically result in a low or dead signal.

Question: How has your iPhone performed so far on the new HSPA+ network? Let us know in the comments!

    Hey maybe if we're lucky Telus and Bell will "shame" Rogers/Fido into upgrading their network so we too can benefit from better cell tower coverage. Alas, if they do improve the coverage it will probably end up costing us subscribers more$$$$$ to help them improve it as they'll download their expenditures onto the end user.
