We’ve all seen this before. Whenever a carrier launches a ‘hot’ device, all of the other carriers respond in-kind with a tirade of internal and external ‘memos’ that bash the device, and tell others why it is no good. Call it jealousy or a simple yet weak defence, it seems that these tactics are the norm.

This time around it’s Verizon that is busy bashing the G1 (T-Mobile). All of the reasons they give (as you can see above) have all been noted before, so it’s no big shock to anyone at all.

Only reason I report this, is because it remains so amazing to me at how these multi-million/billion dollar companies still resort to somewhat childish tactics on things like this: ‘Oh, you got that new phone hey? Well, sorry to disappoint you but it’s no good because of this, this and this… The phone I have right here is MUCH better’…

*sigh*… make the jump for page 2 of the document.
