    I very good friend of mine has a hookup at Sprint and according to his big wig buddy at Sprint, AT&T lost exclusive rights to the iPhone and Sprint will have the new iPhone 4G in August but it hasn't been announced yet... would be sense for Apple to do that since vzw's there's a map for that adds against AT&T... plus vzw has touchscreen blackberry storm2...and the 3 when it comes out...

    This would make perfect sense... anyways, I friend reserved his and I had him reserve me one... I've known this guy 15 years... i highly doubt he's lying lol

    Thought you'd all like to know...

    I just don't see Apple teaming up with Sprint of all carriers. So I won't be holding my breath.

    The only way it's not true is if his hookup lied to him... and if that happens, I know he'll be leaving sprint... he wants an iPhone bad... bad move on his friend's part

    AT&T can keep the iPhone. With Apple going after JB'ers now, I will have to pass on purchasing one now. What use is buying a product that they can kill at will if they think you are using it wrongly. I will have to add this to the 1,283,193,133 threads about who is getting it.

    Sprint? Doubtful, but Apple should open the iPhone up to more carriers.

    The question is more why give it to a carrier who cant keep a net customer for the last almost 3 years now. Thatd be the dumbest business decision ever.

    If anything itd go to Tmo since its GSM already too.

    To the OP, and how did you reserve a phone that has not even been announced yet? Once again let the iPhone 4G BS rumors start. Unless you have proof then it's all just hear say and not worth posting.

    This guy has been hooking up my friend for at least 10yrs with Sprint devices.. in other words... he's pulling two phones out of the stock for us... and like i said.. unless the hookup lied to my good friend is the only way this is BS

    There is no way Sprint is using Wimax for 4G iPhone will use LTE like all the other carriers are going with.

    For people to say BS, yeah maybe, but NOBODY on this forums knows anything about the 4G iPhone. Period. Assume all you want, but you know what they say when u assume.

    Not even Apple employees have info on the next iPhone, so how will anyones "buddy" know anything?

    BUT, being a Sprint customer, I would LOVE to see this happen since Sprint has the best bang for your buck.

    Sure noone know for sure, but it makes no sense that apple would want to lock itself on Sprints 4G when everyone else will have LTE networks. It is about largest possible customer base.

    That's one of the reasons I keep the iPhone and haven't found a phone that I can say I'd give the iPhone up for. It just works and works well. No loading ROM's to get multitouch (which isn't as smooth), etc. I'm betting the 4G is going to be awesome as well.

    I'll wait until the phone gets announced and Steve Jobs puts the carriers on the his huge *** projector screen.

    Like someone stated, I'd believe T-mobile getting it before Sprint, but then again, my name isn't Steve Jobs, so anything is possible. Steve may want to prove to the world he is King by getting a carrier that has yet to have a positive quarter in god knows how long to finally have the opposite happen. You know what that could do for Apple? So many more people would be on-board to invest more $$$ into Apple. I still won't believe it, but you never know.

    I think youll see 1 and 3 more than likely, I really dont think it needs a complete overhaul, just some tweaking. It sells big for what it is, elegant and simple.

    But I will agree I think MS has a winner with WM7, it looks VERY good and highly appealing. If Apple for some reason doesnt deliver itll be WM7 phone for me.
