Stop me if I'm wrong, but Apple actually got AT&T to develop features on the backend of their network to get visual voicemail working. Android was also a bid from Google to have the newly opened bit of spectrum be a "utility" band, where any device that gets FCC certified can plug into that network -- regardless of carrier or manufacturer. That didn't fly. I would wager that's a more telling indication of who's going to come out on top of the scrap heap. The wireless handheld market is not beholden to perfect competition. Especially not within the US of A.
