You would think they pay attention to quarterly earnings calls where Apple answers questions like "is the company going to build a netbook" or even "are you guys planning on building a cheaper (as in less capable) iPhone?" The answer Apple gave for both was "NO" and they even elaberated on why they choose not to invest R&D on either of these products. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jab167]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 10:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple prototyping "iPhone lite" and MacBook Mini / media pad for Verizon?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</guid><description><![CDATA[where there is smoke...  Honestly, this is about the third or fourth different article I have seen pop up in the last week at various sites talking about rumors of Apple and Verizon in talks about an iphone.  This has got to scare the living you know what out of AT&T.  As of right now AT&T kills Verizon in terms of phone selection while Verizon dominates in terms of network and 3G coverage.  A Verizon branded iphone would do wonders for Verizon in terms of closing the gap in phone selection between the two and clearly give Verizon the advantage going forward.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob T.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 10:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple prototyping "iPhone lite" and MacBook Mini / media pad for Verizon?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</guid><description><![CDATA[Macbook Mini is likely <a href="http://tinyurl.com/6rxdjt" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/6rxdjt</a> + OS X.<br>-gm]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[greg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 2:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple prototyping "iPhone lite" and MacBook Mini / media pad for Verizon?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</guid><description><![CDATA[Edit, to clarify: I believe that what is called "mackbook mini" is probably just a dell mini ( <a href="http://tinyurl.com/6rxdjt" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/6rxdjt</a> ) that someone has installed OS X on and called it that.<br>-gm]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[greg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 2:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple prototyping "iPhone lite" and MacBook Mini / media pad for Verizon?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</guid><description><![CDATA[Interesting rumors, but ultimately it tells us very little.  First, if this is even true, these are just negotiations.  Negotiations fall apart all the time.  Sometimes they are just aimed at making the other guy (AT&T) nervous, so they'll cut a better deal.  The fact that this is getting "leaked" out tells me it's probably the latter.  They want this to get out.  Otherwise we wouldn't know about it.<br><br>I'd bet money that Apple has had a CDMA prototype iPhone since the first gen, which they approached Verizon with and also showed AT&T, ultimately leading to the sweet deal that Apple got on the 2G and 3G iPhones.  You can't negotiate very well without leverage, and being able to walk to the competitor at any time is good leverage.<br><br>I do hope Verizon gets an Apple product, because I think it's good for consumers and competition.  But don't hope too much until it actually happens.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 4:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple prototyping "iPhone lite" and MacBook Mini / media pad for Verizon?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/apple-prototyping-iphone-lite-and-macbook-mini-media-pad-for/</guid><description><![CDATA[I really don't mind if the Iphone comes to Verizon. but while reading other comments on this topic. ive been hearing that  CDMA has limitations compared to the current GSM Model. on my opinion, GSM is more user friendly to the consumer. seeing that you can jailbreak or unlock it to use with other GSM carriers. so i think that is why Apple chose ATT for its exclusivity. Apple likes to make products that let people push their own boundaries. so that might be a reason. i currently own a Iphone 3G on ATT. and it works fine. and its affordable. with the update coming soon with MMS, copy and pasting, and Landscape Texting, other smartphones/touchphones on the market will have to compete. yes. its sad that an iphone can do everything cept some basic needs on a phone. but apple will come up with something. and make it even better. thats just my opinion. btw. the palm pre is looking to be pretty good. but after the storm. we'll see who can compete with the Iphone so far. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[J-Doza]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 11:51PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
