IF Clash of the Titans Were Really About American Phone Companies


IF Clash of the Titans Were Really About American Phone Companies

By: Blue Rose

In the earliest days of the world, the Earth was ruled by Titans. These Titans were overthrown by their own children, and split into four different companies: AT&T, Cingular, T-Mobile, and Verizon.

Tricked by its brothers, AT&T ate Cingular, thinking it would make it stronger, but was sent to rule the underworld. Verizon became king of the heavens, and T-Mobile king of the Sea.

For years AT&T-Cingular bided their time in the Underworld, until they came up with a device so diabolical, that it became a vice for almost everyman: The IPhone.

Men began to worship AT&T instead of Verizon, and every day AT&T's strength grew and grew, until one day, Verizon had a plan to win back the favor of his subjects.

Verizon went into his Olympian Armory and forged not a lightning bolt, but a new type of phone service that would soon bring AT&T to its knees.

For hundreds of years, the far away land of Europe was famed to use a service called "GMS" that didn't force them to use strictly their carriers phones, or even to get a new phone when they switched carriers, but let them run free, frolicking in the beauty of non-proprietary phone service; and this is what Verizon said he would create.

But the years rolled on, and Verizon never delivered this promise. Rumors circulated of Verizon getting the IPhone, and yet we sit in wait, nothing delivered.

- Explanation -

If you didn't know yet, Verizon promised it's customers in 2007 "Any Apps, Any Device", claiming it would introduce the same sort of universal service Europe boasts, but here we are three years later still hearing rumbling rumors about Verizon getting the IPhone. Is this what major Wireless conglomerates use as "effective" business strategies these days?

People like author Clandestine, from hubpages.com claim "Verizon Confirms 'they are making network changes to bring the iphone to their network'", but there is still alot of speculation. Many people think the new 4G IPhone will find its way into Verizon's hands when it makes its debut in July, as it would be a pretty penny in Apple's pocket, but what will happen is anyone's guess.

  1. Sigh.. Verizon Bias at its finest.
    a) The new iPhone will not run on 4g.
    b)Verizon almost had the 4th generation iPhone, but them, in their assholeness, they want all their phones to run off of v-cast, and wanted apple to take off the app store and put in a v-cast store.
    c)At&t and cingular were the same company until they split. then at&t bought them again.
