AT&T on Tuesday sued Verizon for allegedly misleading customers with its "there's a map for that" ads. The complaint argues that Verizon is deliberately exaggerating the gaps in AT&T's coverage through its map of 3G networks, making it seem as though some areas have no coverage at all, not just 3G. Verizon has already had to alter maps after some earlier protests from AT&T.

iLounge is reporting that Apple rejected the iPhone aggregator app Newspapers, because of a topless photo. In the rejection message, Apple noted that Parental Controls have been announced for iPhone OS 3.0, adding that it "would be appropriate to resubmit your application for review once this feature is available." Rumor sites are speculating that Apple will relax their content restrictions once the 3.0 update puts parental controls in place. This may mean apps like NIN will be allowed in the future.

You may remember earlier in the month when AT&T changed its Terms of Service, banning any video/audio streaming to its devices, which would have blocked SlingPlayer, Qik, Skype from its devices, mainly the iPhone. The immediate outcry made AT&T issue a retraction and claim it was all a mistake. Well, AT&T decided you all have a short memory. Electronista is reporting that AT&T has again modified the terms to specifically prevent "redirecting television signals for viewing on Personal Computers." This means you, Slingbox. The company submitted their iPhone app to the App Store a month ago, and rumor has it AT&T has been leaning heavily on Apple to reject it, for fears it will saturate the 3G network.
