Whiz
Whiz Wireless is a phone company that appears in GTA IV. It competes with Tinkle for dominance in the wireless market, using the slogan "Whiz is stronger than Tinkle" (this makes fun of the fact that both names are slang terms for urinating).
Whiz is possibly a parody of Sprint, as both use a name which means "to move quickly" and share a colour scheme of yellow and black. However, the company's position as best in the country means that it could be a parody of Verizon, along with the fact that their names sound similar.
In the game, Niko Bellic starts with a Badger phone until Playboy X gives him a Whiz phone in the "Photo Shoot" mission to take a picture of a snitch. The new phone is both better looking than the old phone and has a Camera, allowing Niko to take pictures.
