Larry Dignan on Verizon’s Quarterly Results

Decent numbers overall, but:

However, AT&T added customers at a faster pace in the third quarter on the strength of the iPhone. Verizon is hoping to change that equation via a partnership with Google. John Killian, CFO of Verizon, characterized the company’s wireless performance as strong and said there “are plenty of revenue growth opportunities” ahead. It’s clear Verizon is betting big on Android.

I don’t think it’s possible to overstate how important the iPhone is to AT&T.
