No, it was not its mobile phone network. Rather it was the Verizon Wireless Web site.
It slowed noticeably just as Verizon executives said at a press conference in New York that they would begin offering the iPhone next month. Hordes of people apparently tried to access the site to get details.
The site, which usually downloads in around 3.5 seconds, took nearly twice as long to appear, according to Keynote Systems, a mobile and Internet monitoring firm. The slowdown lasted up to 30 minutes, starting at around 12:05 p.m.
Another spike in traffic slowed the site for around 15 minutes starting at 2:30 p.m., Keynote said.
“There wasn’t any significant outage; it just slowed down,” said Shawn White, senior director of external operations for Keynote.
Many people are waiting to see if Verizon’s mobile network suffers the same problems as AT&T’s has after it introduces the iPhone. Who knows whether Verizon’s Web site slowdown is a precursor of things to come?
