TMC’s executive editor Richard “Zippy” Grigonis, offers yet another angle to today’s super-hyped (or as my kids would say, “super-duper-scooper” hyped) Apple iPhone launch.
Richard actually paints a scenario that shows that things are not altogether perfect when it comes to the iPhone and the AT&T service upon which it will run.
In an article called EDGE, the Fly in Apple's iPhone Ointment, he points out certain issues with the EDGE network offered by AT&T.
In fact Richard refers to a NYTimes interview with Randall L. Stephenson, the new AT&T CEO, who said that the fact that the iPhone offers faster WiFi networking would more than make up for the relatively slow pace of its cellular EDGE data network.
