U2 guitarist sues AT&T for defamation of pseudonym



In the wake of poor public response to AT&T's "Edge" network which provides internet service to Apple's new iPhone, a lawsuit has been filed by Apple's own puppet and lead guitarist for the band "U2," David Howell Evans (aka The Edge). Mr. Evans, or The Edge as he refers to himself, claims that AT&T's Edge network "is slow and lame," and that its name is a defamaton of his pre-existing pseudonym and jeopardizes band loyalty. Furthermore, The Edge claims that the delay in loading a web page on AT&T's Edge network infringes on his signature guitar style. Neither AT&T nor The Edge could be reached for comment.
