Verizon with its “iDont, Droid Does” advertising campaign has been ruthlessly targeting Apple iPhone, including Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs personally with its recent ad in Sports Illustrated magazine last week.

How far this ad war is going to benefit them is a bit too early to comment on. But one thing that we all were sure off was that Apple is going to respond to them sooner rather than later, knowing how they keep doing it on the PC front with “Get a Mac” ad campaign.

Both the new ads ends with the line "Can your phone and your network do that?". That’s of course a fair enough game.
