    I already plan to move to AT&T once I receive my Priv. Here are my reasons why if anyone cares.

    VZW has a tendency to alter Android OS - disabling some features that make the phone unique. They did this with my LG G4. I was not happy.

    In my area, VZW service is not superior to the competition to justify a premium price.

    VZW is terrible with delivering updates to devices while other carriers, especially GSM seem to have them available just weeks after.

    I agree with all of this! I will not be buying this phone under my current contract with VRZN. I'll wait til my contract ends next summer then I might consider buying one unlocked on a GSM Network.... Unless there is a new model in the horizon.

    For whatever it's worth...I had to speak with a tier 2 BlackBerry tech specialist last night and while waiting for an issue to boot up he checked on the Priv. Said he can confirm that they will definitely be selling it on their network but there was no info as to when (and even he did have that info he could not tell me).

    So, there's that.

    Anyone can do the search.

    https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/repor...ericSearch.cfm

    Enter the Applicant Code as "L6A" for BlackBerry, then filter by Action Date. You want to put start October, end December (yes it needs an end date, only from doesn't work)
    OK cool!

    Awesome news in this thread, and here is some more information to verify that Verizon CDMA phone exists after I looked through the FCC Documents.

    Not accurate, that is WCDMA, not CDMA

    I too like reading these forums even though it's not confirmed. Hoping for an official announcement soon!

    All the carriers have leeway to change features. Except with Apple stuff. On the positive side, VZW offered Qi charging on their Z30. ATT will change features as well so you need to shop and try the phone out. I am looking forward to trying the Priv out in a VZW store. I personally like pure google android so interested in the BB10 marriage. I agree that VZW is terrible with updates. I was wishing that with the Google partnership, it would be a Google Experience Device (e.g. Nexus-like) and get the updates straight from Google.
