T-Mobile: Yea, The iPhone 4 Has Some Features, So Do Our Android Phones
In what looks to be a very pointless (and counteractive) memo, T-Mobile’s outlining the different features of some of their flagship phones (including the T-Mobile Garminfone and T-Mobile MyTouch Slide alongside the WinMo-bred HD2) up against the iPhone 4. It’s pointless because T-Mobile’s not downplaying the iPhone 4 in any way: they’re simply advertising the iPhone 4 internally.
You’d think that this kind of memo would stand to train customer service reps on how to sway their customers away from the prospect of going to AT&T for Apple’s latest device, but it’s simply telling them “yea, the iPhone 4 is out there and it does some stuff”. I’m not a marketing major – nor can I say I have any experience dealing with internal relations of any sort – but I feel the need to publicly conclude that this memo is a complete waste of time and data (I’d say paper, but T-Mobile’s gone all green and junk).
The only other conclusion I could even come up with is that this hints at the possibility of the iPhone 4 heading to the carrier, but let’s not go that far. We are an Android blog, after all, so let’s keep it moving.
