Apple has joined AT&T in the attack against Verizon after the network aired ads directly insulting the iPhone.

First it began when Verizon attacked AT&T's network with the "There's a Map for That" campaign.

Next, Verizon's launched the iDon't ad campaign which touted all the features the iPhone could not perform.

Consequently, AT&T filed suit against Verizon claiming the direct comparison of 3G maps would confuse customers into thinking AT&T didn't have coverage in most of the country. Verizon responds with more "There's a Map for That" ads.

Again Verizon attacks Apple with a Sports Illustrated This is a world of "nope," "nuh-uh," and "sorry, Charlie." ad

Then, AT&T launched its own ad campaign with Luke Wilson attacking Verizon's network limitations.

Now, Apple is in on the action with two new iPhone ads which ask "Can Your Phone and Your Network Do That?"
