Anyone wanna touch Verizon's Bluetooth implementation policies with AT&T's? What about Verizon's proprietary GUI's that tend's to slow most of their phones down?
I can assure everyone here, when AT&T says they're open (when compared to Verizon) they're just about right....
Verizon = Cripple OBEX/FTP file transfer on 95% of their handsets. AT&T = 99% of the time every profile the manufacturer can throw on there from Motorola, Nokia, Sony Ericsson and LG.
And let's not get started on the whole J2ME and Brew thing...
Oh, Verizon's not the only guilty party. Sprint and the MVNO's are just as bad!
Alltel is the only CDMA carrier that does the least damage to their phone's firmware's.

Um...Verizon never claimed to be more open than AT&T, or any other carrier. It said that it will BECOME open.
