"We think it's a smart and efficient way to offer our customers a wireless service." Comcast spokesman Andrew Johnson agreed. "By offering each other's services, consumers looking for a great way to stay connected at home and on the go now have a new option for video, phone, Internet and wireless services," he said. But what about Verizon? Isn't the company relegating its own services to a secondary position and placing itself at a competitive disadvantage? "That's not how we see it," responded Ed McFadden, a spokesman for Verizon Communications. "The broadband and video markets are highly competitive. We believe we have a superior product." Be that as it may, Paul Macchia, a spokesman for Verizon Wireless, said Time Warner's and Comcast's TV services were being sold by Verizon Wireless only in areas where Verizon's FiOS TV service is unavailable. So there's no conflict.
