Android dominates T-Mobiles network as 90 percent of smartphones sold run Googles mobile OS. However, that doesnt mean they wouldnt enjoy a little iOS love.
T-Mobile Chief Marketing Officer Cole Brodman while speaking at the GigaOM Mobilize conference confirmed again that T-Mobile would not be joining the iPhone party during the iPhone 5 launch this fall. Sprint is rumored to be getting the iPhone and Brodman made it known that it isn’t T-Mobile’s fault they don’t sell the iPhone.
Wed love to have the iPhone whenever Apple makes that available, Brodman said. The ball is in Apples court.
T-Mobiles parent company Deutsch Telekom AG blamed T-Mobiles poor performance as the reason behind the carrier not selling the iPhone. The number of subscribers abandoning the network to own the iPhone has hurt growth, but with smartphones making up 75 percent of the phones on T-Mobiles network there must be at least a marginal market for the iPhone.
With Apple holding out on T-Mobile Brodman when asked about the performance of other smartphone platforms that he is hopeful for a BlackBerry comeback next year.
Brodman should probably place his hope somewhere else, like the Mayans 2012 Doomsday prediction.






You can put this in the “why would you want to do that, oh well it’s cool to say I can” bucket. ModMyi.com user ismoothproject has built an Apple Script app which will take iPad-only apps you’ve purchased (still requires a purchase – this isn’t warez, folks) and allow them to be launched on an iPhone, as well as transfer them to your iPhone wirelessly. It requires a jailbroken iPhone, as it sends the .app file via SFTP (requires OpenSSH be installed on your device). Not all apps work, as they’re not really meant to be on that device obviously, but like I said – this is more just “oh, weird, why not?”
