Pusher Man: Verizon Reps Will Push Android Over iPhone? Not So Fast
A post on CNN Money found that during a quick assessment of 10 Verizon stores and reps in New York - arguably a small sample size - the representatives would pitch Verizon's Android's 4G phones over the "old fashioned" 3G iPhone. Said one rep: "The iPhone is a great phone, but it's on 3G. I'm not going to recommend a phone that's outdated."Now I don't doubt David Goldman's story that Verizon reps are pushing Android inventory in New York if only to clear out the back room. However, I had to test it myself. I chatted briefly with a Verizon rep online and found that she (I assume it was a she as her name was Chiquita) just wanted to close the sale rather than steer me towards anything else:Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/Cb9maD0MgAk/
