It’s Hard To Feel Sorry For AT&T

Perhaps now you've read Fred Vogelstein's feature about the relationship between AT&T and Apple in this month's Wired magazine. If not, you definitely should, it's available online . It reads a bit like a story about a couple who after three tumultuous years of marriage are about to split up. Not get divorced, mind you, but separated. In this scenario as laid out by Vogelstein, Apple seems a bit like the uncaring and demanding husband. While AT&T is the timid and overwhelmed wife. The way Vogelstein ends up painting it, it's hard not to feel a bit bad for AT&T. Their situation has always been sort of a lose-lose. And it could be a very big loss when the iPhone exclusivity ends.
