Postscript: AT&T CEO admits an open wireless network is “inevitable”

Consumer Tip

I have to say the Boss comes up with some items that just shake the rafters. The AT&T interview is one of these. Go back and read the whole interview. Particularly the end graph.

Here’s the recommendation. If you currently have a contract that won’t expire till early 2009 then let it do so. Go month to month. That means Verizon, Helio, several other carriers. No use signing up for a contract on a device that won’t carry over into the LTE world pretty soon. That is doubly assertive with the prospect of open handsets coming to the industry.

Heh, and folks said Android might not amount to anything. Personally I think that Android/Google has been a catalyst for the Duopoly to open up their networks.
