With the release of the Droid, Verizon is now a place to consider buying a phone. Although, Verizon has the best network, they didn’t have a good exclusive phone. Since the Droid has an application market to compete with the iPhone’s, will Verizon’s amazing network fall to mediocre?
Applications can take tons of data. If you are watching a show on Ustream, listening to music on Pandora, browsing Facebook, and anything alike, you are most likely using a ton of data. If you have at least 13 million other people doing the same thing, your network won’t be the fastest. This obviously happened to AT&T. AT&T was the best network before the iPhone, and almost everyone had an AT&T phone. With the great application list the iPhone had, it brought the network down to mediocre.
Life I said earlier, the Droid has an application market to compete with the iPhone. It has almost all the main applications that the iPhone has. Once the Droid grows to more people, Verizon’s network will obviously go down to where AT&T is.
