The other day we noted how AT&T was suing Verizon over their “There’s A Map For That” ad campaign, claiming the ads misrepresented AT&T’s wireless network coverage. A leaked memo from AT&T management to employees has surfaced, telling them what to tell consumers should they ask about the lawsuit. In short: “tell customer’s we’re awesome” is the meat of the memo, which not surprisingly omits AT&T’s recent struggles with iPhone data capacity and the fact that yeah, Verizon does have better 3G coverage.
