Verizon (VZ), AT&T (T) Ad-War II, The iPhone Conflict

February 7, 2011 10:52 AM EST
Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ: AAPL) iPhone is coming to Verizon (NYSE: VZ) in just a few days, setting the stage for another war of advertising between the wireless carrier and its rival AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T).

The feud was in full swing last year with the memorable iPhone "Island of Misfit Toys" spot among others fired off by Verizon, which spawned an unfortunate slew of Luke Wilson spearheaded segments.

On Sunday the two largest wireless companies in the U.S. slugged it out with million-dollar ads during the Super Bowl preceding the Verizon iPhone launch.
