In this article, http://news.yahoo.com/s/nf/20100218/bs_nf/71736, entitled AT&T Becomes Last of Big Four Carriers to Offer Android, talks about how AT&T now carries an Android based phone and will come out with two more Android based phones within the first half of the year. AT&T claims that there will be a new smartphone from HTC and Dell’s first smartphone will be released within the first half of this year.
Now the idea of AT&T releasing an Android based phone seems almost pointless because in my opinion, AT&T has the worst service out of the major cell phone carriers and the only reason that they are still doing alright now is because they offer the iphone exclusively. I just don’t see why someone would choose to purchase an Android phone with the AT&T network. I dont’ even see why anyone would decide to go with AT&T as their carrier unless they were doing so specifically to obtain an iphone, so the idea of introducing an Android seems somewhat pointless to me.
