Verizon Takes More Shots at AT&T and the iPhone

Last week AT&T filed a lawsuit against Verizon because of its latest “coverage map” advertising campaign.  Clearly they were upset with the way Verizon was depicting their coverage areas and they wanted to put an end to it.  So what did Verizon do about this?  They came back with three new holiday themed ads and each feature the weak AT&T coverage map in them.

The first one titled “Misfit Toys” is the most intriguing because it includes the iPhone, well not a real iPhone just a cheap replica.  In it the iPhone is sent the land of misfit toys because it doesn’t work properly.  It’s not really a direct shot at the iPhone more of at AT&T and its weak coverage areas.  This is also another sign that the iPhone should be coming soon to Verizon and some are saying by Q3 2010.
