Anyone who ever bought an iPhone on AT&T is now part of a class-action lawsuit taking aim at both the wireless carrier and Apple for their exclusive contract.
The lawsuit, filed in 2007, accuses both the iPhone maker and AT&T of illegally exerting a monopoly over iPhone customers. It alleges that iPhone users are forced to stay with AT&T after their two-year contract expires, because neither AT&T nor Apple will unlock the iPhone for use on another carrier, such as T-Mobile.
You have got to be kidding me with this, right? A company can't even choose who they want their business partners to be anymore? I seem to recall buying several phones over the years - especially from Sprint - that would only work on their network. Or how about phones purchased from Verizon? They have a completely different type of cell service altogether, which means that their phones only work on their network.
What a waste of time.
