This morning on CNBC, AT&T CEO Ralph de la Vega was asked if he has seen the new iPhone 5. In response, he waved his Nokia Lumia 900, proceeding to tell everyone that it’s the phone he carries on a daily basis.

Recently, Verizon’s CEO has said that they will be aggressively supporting Windows Phone as a third ecosystem, which I would assume is due to the same subsidy problem they have with the iPhone.
