The advanced power is so superior to any other computer.

Its a product made by man not a god incarnate. Although I’ve always wondered if some apple fanboys worship small Steve Job idols in secret… Anyways, Apple has pros and Apple has cons just like anything else on the market. People that like and dislike Apple products is a matter of opinion not undeniable fact. Heck I could hate something because it wasn’t soaked in baby blood before being sent out on the market, but again thats MY opinion (I was talking hypothetically of course). Ok small rant over. Again I say that all of what I just said were opinions on observations of things nothing else. End rant.

Just by chance I watched Steve Jobs’s interview with Walt Mossberg at 2007′s All Things D (D5) Conference, and I was struck by the sense of loyalty that Jobs expressed when referring to how Cingular took a risk on Apple in accepting the iPhone to their network while Verizon (we hear) wouldn’t give them access.

“I think Cingular invested in us, they took a gamble on us, and likewise we took a gamble on them. So, I will never forget that.”

AT&T, at the time called Cingular, may not be the strongest network, but as CEO Randall Stephenson mentioned in this year’s D Conference, the top complaint for all mobile phone networks in the US is signal; it’s not unique to Cingular. There’s no saying there will be any less of a mob decrying Verizon signal strengths were Apple to release an iPhone CDMA version. I imagine Apple could likely keep a level of pragmatism and institutional memory in its decision making process – it wants the best business result but it also wants a carrier in the US that it can actually deal with, and back in 2007 (let alone 2004 when they started working on the iPhone), Verizon was so locked up in their own software packages, network restrictions and carrier lock-ins, I can’t imagine how a pairing of such companies would have worked.
