If you read the article it clearly states that users that use their phone on off carrier towers more than 40% of the time are terminated as this is when it gets to be too expensive to AT&T. My point is that perhaps AT&T will start allowing this and charge extra to offset the cost. That would be a way to get around the issue without having to let every Joe shmoe carrier carry a certain phone.
I like AT&T but I also understand that it's a business and not alway on my side. In the case of the iPhone though, they have kept their mits off of the phone and allowed apple to have total control of it. They are charging us up the wazoo for this privealege. But I, for one do not want any carrier bloatware on my iPhone. Other carriers will screw the phone up.
