The iPhone, Is it a Gamechanger

The iPhone has led to many things over the years. It has just recently been released to Verizon and was originally released to AT&T. T-Mobile and Sprint have never been in on this action and have felt left out. They don't seem to happy, especially since they're losing customers because of the iPhone anyways. It's like whoever has the iPhone, is the carrier that gets the most customers. Now that might seem unfair, but everyone's network is different and one thing can't support all.

T-Mobile and Sprint are just the networks that Apple's iPhone just doesn't support. T-Mobile runs on the new spectrum known as AWS or 1700. Sprint runs on CDMA and WiMAX which doesn't relate to the iPhone. The iPhone runs on GSM and CDMA, but only works on Verizon and AT&T. It could work on Sprint, it's just Verizon won't let them. You want more customers, well you got to get rid of the competition. That may not be fair or legal, but that's the way things are. Look at the AT&T merger with T-Mobile that's has come up. Is this the return of the monopoly days where one company controlled everything. Will innovation turn to a standstill?

Let's just wait and see. Will Google trump the iPhone. We just don't know yet.

Is the AT&T and T-Mobile Merger A Good Thing?

AT&T aka Ma Bell is coming back again. It's giving an offer for T-Mobile about 39 billion dollars to be exact. It's owner, Deutsche Telekom, is selling it because it can't make money out of it anymore due to the iPhone. Sprint and T-Mobile have been suffering ever since the iPhone came out, losing customers as people just wanted the latest gadget so it's owner got desperate. DT wants to sell T-Mobile USA. Why should it concern you? Well, you should be worried. T-Mobile and Sprint are the only ones standing up to AT&T and Verizon and those two big companies care about money not innovation.

T-Mobile was the first company to bring Android phones to the market. They sparked innovation and a true iPhone competitor and this has brought Android across all carriers, because of it's popularity. Sprint has announced it will support number porting with Google Voice natively and will give it's users the option to. Sprint and T-Mobile are needed to make the mobile atmosphere changing otherwise we will be stuck in the Ma Bell days where everything just seemed to stay still and boring.

Get rid of T-Mobile? If you do, you're getting rid of innovation and change here.

The World Doesn't Need Only iPhone

The iPhone is great and has everything we've ever wanted and desired. There is only one problem: it's limited to carriers that suck and give us rip offs. Well in Canada it's even worse,but I think the US is catching on to us Canadians. There are alternatives that are actually better than the iPhone like this article about the Samsung Galaxy S. The Galaxy S is gaining momentum as with other Android phones, but I think its the only one that can stand up to the iPhone.

The iPhone is going down and I believe the plans are overpriced for the phone itself and you can't get out without a contract.The phone has a few flaws in my opinion and it's not the antenna issue. The iPhone is closed-source while Google is open-source. Not only that more phones run Android and have much more better features and unlimited plans with them like Sprint's Epic 4G or Evo 4G.This gives the world options, options that we're created by Google's acquisition of Android.

The Samsung Galaxy S takes competition to a whole new level. The Galaxy S boasts Super AMOLED screens which the iPhone can't offer. It has a 5mp or was it 8mp camera that can shoot 720p video which is something that the iPhone can only now do. It has 1ghz processor compared to the iPhone's unknown Apple A4 which could be under-clocked. Not only that Android has true multitasking and many different layouts by manufactures which they customize with their own theme's like HTC's Sense.

The iPhone should be going down as Android is getting known all over the world. It's just a matter of time before the iPhone gives up the crown of the number one smartphone to own.

iPhone 4 and the competition.

Billshrink took a look at how the iPhone 4 is stacked up against it's competition which I can say has a lot more stuff than what the iPhone 4 has to offer. Even though the iPhone 4 looks cheaper, it's not. The competition is actually better in some ways.

HDMI Input - This is a thing that the iPhone 4 doesn't have while competitors like the Evo 4G does. This is something Apple should have added.

Unlimited - I don't think AT&T defined unlimited well. They got rid of unlimited data because of traffic load while competitors still offer them and Sprint's looks good as it's 4G and WiMAX which is way faster than 3G+.

Micro-SD Storage - Everybody loves external storage, except maybe Apple. They still put the storage in the machine. Hello! Micro-SD is better as you can carry different things on the card. This means greater storage.

If you are currently using an iPhone, switch to Android. You won't notice much difference.

The only reason iPhone is at the top is because it's easier, but Android is better. Android is growing

and getting easier to use, so switch today!
