Android To Fail In Lieu Of Verizon iPhone Announcement Tomorrow

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Irvine, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) January 10, 2011 --

Since the iPhone's debut in 2007, AT&T has been its exclusive distributor in the U.S. Rumors about a Verizon iPhone have swirled for years and have risen in recent months. The Wall Street Journal has reported that an event Verizon is holding Tuesday is to announce a deal with Apple to start selling iPhones at the end of the month. Many analysts say Verizon could sell more iPhones in the U.S. than AT&T this year, given pent-up demand from customers not wanting to switch to AT&T. Potential losers are Google Inc. and Motorola Mobility Inc. To counter the iPhone's popularity, Verizon has worked closely with Google to promote its Android phone operating system. Motorola was one of the main beneficiaries, having bet on Android phones to turn around a multi-year slide in its sales. Verizon now accounts for about 45 percent of Motorola's smart phone sales. The Verizon iPhone "will be the first true test for Android," Kaufman analyst Shaw Wu said. It would demonstrate whether gains in its market share are real or just temporary, stemming from weak competition from other iPhone rivals such as the BlackBerry.
