Verizon and AT&T have been responding to the news of the new Google Android platform and Open Handset Alliance in vague, rather not committed press releases which show exactly how far they’re willing to not go. Rather than AT&T joining the OHA, they’d rather sit on the fence with a giant pair of binoculars and try to see what it could mean for them – and their bottom line. Verizon? Well, pretty much the same thing – except they can’t afford the same binoculars. They’re using their hands pretending they’re a pair. Meanwhile the T-Mobile and sinking-fast Sprint have jumped on the OHA bandwagon in an attempt to save themselves – and they very well might do so. Seeing how mobile phones will change with this new platform, and the expanded features it will offer, the iPhone’s dominance may succumb to the Dream Phone. In the meantime AT&T will sit on its deal with Apple, and pray to the phone gods that they don’t get blasted to the wayside.
