AT&T to potential BlackBerry Storm customers: Storm sucks, iPhone rulez!

Exclusive

You definitely have to take this one at face value, but there’s an internal document floating around inside AT&T pitting the iPhone 3G against the upcoming BlackBerry Storm. We had our doubts about this document at first, but we received it from two independent sources now, so it’s legit! Here’s some of the smack-talking AT&T lays down:

  • The Storm doesn’t have multi-touch
  • There’s no Wi-Fi
  • The Storm doesn’t have an App Store
  • Stormy Storm doesn’t have tri-band HSDPA
  • The browser sucks on the Storm
  • No iTunes action (movies, music, etc.)

Yeah yeah, we know you can sync your BlackBerry with DRM-free music in iTunes so don’t get your panties in a bunch over that line. We think legitimate points so far, but the browser hasn’t been tested and tri-band HSDPA doesn’t matter if you’re not using the device on AT&T in the United States. Peanut gallery, you’re up!

Thanks, AT&T ninjas!

    ATT is going to be the next Microsoft and will own it all eventually. The whole argument about being forced to use ATT is bullshit. ATT is great and perhaps the best service around. Businesses are going to compete to say who’s the best but in the end they are all good but it’s who has the most money and can buy out or put down the competition.

    ATT is king

    ATT is GREAT?
    I have had drop outs, my cell phones have all acted like they’re refurbed instead of new, theyt’re expensive as heck, and their coverage stinks. We’re in the process of moving over to Verizon – if for no other reason that the web connections are actually faster. Probably because they have an engineered network, not one that translates from place to place, and isn’t put together from other acquired carriers with spit and paperclips.
