jajajajajaja i love the last comment the most, but hey we have to be realistic if verizon gets this phone wow what ancomplishment it would be but then again this is just rumors….rumors people like those in school he said she said kind of crap..so don’t hold your breath to long. If it happens well excellent if it doesn’t well verizon has just missed out on great beauty not fortune….But would you imagine what a brand new droid x phone owner would….i just but one about 5 moth ago and I wouldn’t getting an iphone only if i’m able to make a call and go the web at the sametime..that would be sweet, cause really att has verizon by the balls with that little thing and i hate it. So verizon lets get to it and step your game up i don’t feel like leaving this network…and please leave the iphone the way it is with the sim card….

Ok y’all mac heads (and yes im of them who owns a beautiful mbpro 17 2010, god i love that machine)- I feel the need to say this much: 1) the iphone is one incredible piece of equipment, hands down. Wonderfully designed. Asthetically amazing, crisp and clear, drop dead sexy… but what about at&t? What about a competative market that forces advancements in tech? What about a shared and challenged marketplace of ideas? If, and i say that hopefully bc i would love to own one of those phones, the iphone did come to big red, what would that mean for its recent competition who has made amazing strides to provide us all with an alternative that would force great minds.to rethink r&d to continue providing us with tech we want to keep up with? Let’s face it, w/o iphone at&t would be dead. Forget their network being what it ‘might’ be- verizon has survived the jobs dictatorship and allowed other manufacturers to step in. We bring the ip4 to vzw and that’s all gone. Droid makes a great phone, id go at&t if the coverage didn’t have questionable issues, but then again, at&t customers would do the same if they had ‘that phone’.

Look the whole point is competative markets are a great thing. They force us to make choices. If one carrier has it all we become apathetic to change. Then they just give us whatever and call it good enough.

Im not down with that. Let these two awesome competators compete for my dollar and continue to make it worth it to spend! Jesus. If we throw up our hands and say ‘give me it all right now’ were only gonna get what we asked for- an easy solution.

Keep the iphone at&t, force at&t to build their network, force android to compete with apple, this is america, don’t let these big corps make it easier to take your money. Make them work for it… just like you do.

Just my opinion.

If Verizon every carries the iPhone its only cause you guys keep pushing. That phone is way behind the curve. Do some research, and stop relying on words of the simple minded drones. Verizon carries 3 phones already that surpass the iPhone, with plenty more in the line up to come soon

I actually know alot about networks IceCat, its how I make my living. I agree that verizon (not virizon) has better call coverage, but an iphone will be subpar with their slow CDMA, once they upgrade to their next generation coverage they may be able to handle the iphone but the fact of the matter is At&t’s 3g is almost 2 times faster than Verizons. dial up vs. DSL guess thats why they have stayed with us for over 3 years. Im glad you get good coverage with your service in Florida

M.DEEZY and Kevin sure dont know anything about service LOL …

Me I had ATT in florida 6 years ago and the coverage was terreble by what I read more and more the service has not improve at all and yes I when to Virizon and never left I have the Samsung Omnia and happy with it I know is not as good as the iPhone but I’m not leaving Virizon for the phone only.
I would like to get it so I’m waitting for it to come out on Virizon but I dont see it anytime soon I been looking all over the internet and no confirmation anywher the closes I got was this page ( http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/apple-iphone-coming-to-verizon-wireless-if-so-itll-freeze-smartphone-upgrades/32502 ) that said it will be on virizon this sumer, again I’m not holding my breath for this to happen my contract is not up till 2011 so I can wait.
Well I am a virizon customer and will be even if the iPhone does not come to us I’m thinking about the Omnia II or the Droid if it does not happen

I hope this help and Virizon all the way !!!

I just heard that the iphone should be in at verizon in June or July 2010. I was told it was leaked and the workers at verizon wasnt even notified about this since at&t contract is about to be up with apple. so they are giving verizon the contract onces its up and i think sprint as well.

Kevin ~ I don’t think any of us are saying AT&T would pull the iPhone from their customers to give proprietary rights to Verizon. In my opinion that would be making the same mistake twice. What most of the Verizon customers on this thread have stated is that we wish Apple would ALSO offer the iPhone to Verizon customers.

Just as you don’t want to leave AT&T, I don’t want to leave Verizon. I had really service when I was with AT&T, and I won’t go back ~ not for any phone! It would just be an added bonus of sales for Apple if they offered the iPhone to both AT&T and to Verizon.

As for the Sim Card ~ I’m sure that if Apple and Verizon are talking of joining forces they’re talking about that issue as well. )

I have had bad experiences with the Verizon company and canceled my Verizon land-line phone to stay with AT&T Wireless and had very good success with AT&T Networks including very good service and hardly any dropped calls… I also had family members switch from Verizon to AT&T because of the coverage area and fantastic Customer Service… If Apple wants Verizon for the IPhone, Apple has to reconsider and understand customers who are now AT&T customers using IPhones (like myself) and would be very angry at Apple if they sold the license to Verizon, leaving AT&T customers who have already purchased the IPhone…

Also, I also noticed the AT&T uses a Sim Card and Verizon doesn’t, so how would that work with a Verizon company that doesn’t use any kind of Sim Card…?

Any one more thing, I know a friend who lives in Great Brittan and say’s there is not really much of a difference from 3′G to 4′G, only that it might be a little faster (but not much)

In any event, Apple knows they don’t want to leave all the AT&T customers in the dark so I think they (Apple) will make the right decision…

also i have been reading that T-mobiel may be next to get it and i belive that would be a downfall to apple because like i said with the AT&T service in the country i have also had T-mobiel which i took back after a day the service was terrible in the country. so if apple wants to make bank (lots of money) they should do it for all carriers or atleast verizon next
