POLL: Verizon Trounces AT&T in Reader Vote

Last week, we witnessed a shocker in our weekly Web Faceoff series, where we pit two tech companies or web apps against each other and let you choose the victor. To our surprise, Google Android easily trounced the popular iPhone by over 1800 votes.

This week, we decided to jump from mobile to carrier. On Monday, we asked you to vote in our Network Faceoff between the #1 and #2 carriers in the U.S., Verizon and AT&T. The two have been have been at war, firing off lawsuits, statements, and … Luke Wilson commercials.

Has this war over the commercial airwaves helped AT&T regain some of the luster it has lost from its inability to support iPhone web traffic? With 64% of the vote …

Verizon has emerged victorious again. The nation’s largest wireless provider was able to secure a clean victory with 1161 votes (64%) compared to AT&T’s 538 votes (30%). Only 118 of you (6%) couldn’t/didn’t decide between the two carriers and called it a tie.

Next Monday, we’ll have another edition of our Web Faceoff, so be on the lookout! In the meantime, let us know what you think of these faceoff results in the comments.

Who would win in a fight: AT&T or Verizon?(surveys)
