AT&T warns exclusivity for 'a number of attractive handsets' will end

from AppleInsider


In its latest filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, AT&T has made mention of its exclusivity agreements for smartphones, and attempted to argue that the company would remain strong after those expire, though Apple's iPhone was not specifically named.

It is only three words, but it was enough to get speculation revved-up: Is AT&T admitting it’s iPhone deal is coming to a close? In a late-Friday filing with the Security and Exchange Commission, Apple’s U.S. partner told regulators exclusivity contracts on ‘a number of attractive handsets’ are about to end.

What I don't understand is what prompted him to relay this tidbit of information. No one truly knows when the deal between AT&T and Apple ends so were there grumbling from stock holders?

Honestly if the remain competitive with their pricing model (with Verizon atleast) they should not really see a huge change in new subscribers.
