The AT&T and Apple bonding for the iPhone sales across the United States has solely dominated the market share for years now. But word is that the two companies are about to break up in a years time.
This isn‘t a confirmed detail but Apple analysts have reported that the sales for the iPhone have been more conquering in places where the single service provider approach hasn’t been used. Consequently Apple intends to end its single carrier exclusivity model to further expand its market share.
Reports also suggest that this change will be brought about with the launch of a new product in 2010. As far as the American alliance is concerned, people have been happy with the iPhone but the AT&T services have not really been satisfying.
Although AT&T is eager to continue the deal through 2011, Verizon might be next on Apple’s roadmap. Given that Verizon has sped up work for its 4G network and the next iPhone model is bound to adore that, that sounds like a deal made in Heaven, don’t you think?
