Verizon snaps up iPhone Domain names

[Ars Diaboli]

I offer this up for your amusement. Its Phillip Elmer-Dewitt and take it for what its worth, but I do believe it means something.

Just cut and paste the following to your browser and viola:

tech.fortune.cnn.com/category/apple-2-0/

Don't know all the technobabble about who owns what, but it looks legit... that Verizon owns the domain names, and that's all it says. What it means is open to debate.


p.s. If I was smarter, I would know how to embed the hyperlink. But I'm not. Could someone kindly tell me. I miss not having it automatically hyperlink.

Happened in 2008:

And we didn't get a Verizon iPhone in 2008. Or in 2009. Or in 2010.

So don't get excited about this particular detail.

If one has any multi carrier experience, it's obvious there's not much difference from one to the next. It's a non issue.
