To be bigger but slower, or speedy yet spotty? This is the ridiculous question indirectly posed to us today by AT&T spokesman Luke Wilson (http://gizmodo.com/5410354/luke-wilsons-droppin-post-cards-on-verizon-wireless). Here's my question: When do these commercials go away?
I mean, wasn't the original Verizon ad that started this off about the size of the 3G network? Now AT&T is countering with speed, which is great and all, so long as you don't live in any major U.S. cities like San Francisco, where those speeds are available, occasionally, like a fleeting wind (this according to the Gizmodo guys who live there, particularly Blam).
But a headless Luke Wilson is hi-larious, right? Enough to get consumers to vote with their hearts and not use their heads though? Not a chance. I'm siding with the Misfit Toys (http://gizmodo.com/5399850/verizon-wireless-launches-three-more-anti+att-3g-network-commercials) on this one.
It's an opinion. It could be off the mark. Let me know in the comments where you fall in this great big objectivity-free ad war between cell phone carriers. [
