Benefits of Supporting iPhone for Other Carriers
Question I've been wondering....
If T-Mobile saw a benefit in providing the visual voice mail service to iPhone users that unlocked their iPhone. Could they do so? Has Apple and att patened the visual voice technology? Could T-Mobile set up the service if they wished? Now that the iPhone is unlocked and can technically be used on T-Mobile's network. Would it be legal and in T-Mobile's interest to provide service for unlocked iPhones? It might help retain its customers or even take customers back from att because people that already own iPhones and hated att could switch. Maybe T-Mobile could even offer to pay their cancelation fees. This would also apply to the European markets. How legal would it be for them to offer official support for an unofficially unlocked iPhone
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
