probably not.
as previously stated, the 4g is not cdma, this is absurd, there won't be a CDMA iphone, i will bet anyone, any amount, and i'm serious, i'll sign documentation. it would be a HUGE waste of resources for both apple AND verizon to produce a cdma iphone. their GSM 4G network will suit current hardware just fine.
:rolleyes:
what do you need expandable memory for? this is an honest question because i don't know the answer, but how many other phones currently support 32gb of memory? and you just know that storage capacity is going to double in a year or two, just in time for your next upgrade. besides, who wants to keep track of multiple cards? not i...not i.
link? :confused:
Thats months old. I could careless about the iphone. But hey good news for VZW.
What does it matter....the Droid is going to wax the floor with the IPhone. :-)
I might get it....might not
I might get it as well. For me to get rid of my Storm, the Droid would need to fill in the gaps.
yea but think about all the people on vzw that will actually switch to the iphone. they would only make more money in the end.
personally i'm waiting to see something official so i can actually get excited about the iphone. im tired of my bsberry.
A win/win situation for Apple and VZW would be for apple to make a dual cmda/LTE iPhone, and market it as the first 4G iphone.
Verizon then contractually agree that is is the only LTE (4G) on their network for 12-18+ months.
This would ensure to get the people who would normnally adopt an iPhone as well as those who must be on the bleedingedge of technology.
I have always thought I would very likley switch to an iPhone when Verizon puts one out with Apple. But now that I have spent 1month+ with my Tour, I am not so sure. I love the push e-mail. I just don't see how Apple can do that as eloquently as RIM.
My wife would be first in line for a Verizon iPhone. Att service is not that great where we and our family live. That is the only reason she does not own an iPhone yet.

Well, one more reason to not use Verizon. The iPhone is the reason at+t's network sucks; the iPhone sucks considerably more bandwidth that any other phone and ruins the network for other users.
And iPhone users too, I suspect. When they have slow connections/bandwidth problems, it will frequently be because of other iPhones!
BTW: if AT+T and Verizon are both going to use LTE for 4G, does anyone know what Sprint's new 4G network uses? And how they compare?
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com
Sprint's 4G network is WiMax. It has very fast speeds, but is not widely implemented.
There is merit to what you are saying about the iPhone. In proportion to the total number of devices on AT&T's network, the iPhone is a small fraction. That small fraction, however, is consuming the majority of the data. More congestion with little additonal cost recovery is a big problem for AT&T.
Actually it isnt such a small percent. They released to day they activated about 3.2 million on ATT this quarter alone. I think there are about 10 million total on ATT- so about 10-12% of ATT customers.
Thats a pretty significant portion considering its one phone.
...That's 32% for those of you who don't speak Stu. ;-)

I wasnt clear, i meant about 9-10 million total iphones on ATT out of 80 million total ATT subs, so roughly 10%
AT&T exec hints at Iphone exclusivity coming to an end.

In case someone hadn't seen it when I had posted this on a different thread, here's possible info. on Verizon 4G, LTE, & ipone.
Bigger News for Verizon Than Motorola’s Droid � FoneFrenzy – Mobile Technology Blog
"Even if we lose exclusivity, we will be the only carrier with HSPA 7.2 and (new devices) will work on our network faster," de la Vega said. “I feel as strongly as ever (about the capability of devices in our lineup.)"
I see nothing hinting there. He's simply trying to say that IF they ever did lose the exclusivity theyd still be making gains and have a strong line-up; basically reassuring investors theyre not a one pony company (even though the iphone IS a big pony).
Hypothetically even if they werent resigning with Apple, de la Vega wouldnt be publicly announcing so either way. Thats the last logical move of a CEO saying your prize fighter is going to be fighting for both teams, it would stifle purchases and customer adds.
As said in the other thread, Fone Frenzy? Who?
Also because Google is 8.5 miles from Apple DOESNT mean VZW's CEO visited or talked to Apple. A poor set of baseless assumptions at best by a no-name blog trying to get some spotlight.
Not a credible source for any info, and no credible news source is mirroring any of this information from their own sources.
This isn't the first time he has hinted it.
http://www.theiphoneblog.com/2009/10...e-exclusivity/
He is just restating the obvious. No info whether the exclusivity ends in June 2010, or will be extended to some distant date beyond. Nothing we already didn't know.
it doesnt matter if the exclusivity ends or is extended. AT&T will always carry the iPhone , the only change is every other carrier will to. This now creates the game of "who has better service" rather than who has the iPhone...
so why did it get moved? Guess another mod had nothing better to do lol... haterz!:p
and thus it becomes the razr, it will rapidly evaporate into a completely mundane yesterday device, wait it already is.
