I loved the point that "in the eyes of the consumer, 'the iPhone has the nimbus of infallibility, ergo, it’s AT&T’s fault.'" Although AT&T had the most to gain from its relationship with Apple, this point also shows that it had a lot to lose as well. I think another factor explaining AT&T's problems is that its wireless reception has been the worst in San Francisco and NYC, cities that drive public opinion in matters technological. Great post.
