Underdog T-Mobile is having a field day with Verizon and AT&T in a commercial that mocks the pair over the fact T-Mobile has 4G and Verizon and AT&T don’t (yet). Pity the poor iPhone – also a character in the commercial – who has to choose between the lesser of two have nots.

Forgetting for a moment Sprint also has 4G, the spot pays homage to “I’m A Mac” Apple commercials and paints Verizon and AT&T as frumpy John Hodgman-like characters with receding hairlines while the iPhone and the T-Mobile babe herself are portrayed as a nit more fashion forward.

Now if only the iPhone worked on T-Mobile and the network, itself, was available in more than two places.
