Thanks for the good news!

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Finally I can get rid of AT&T soon.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Just get the new droid 4g they have coming out. Much veteran phone.

Don't know what the big deal is.
Apple sucks.
iPhones suck.

From the article:

Gonna be interesting when the rush of new iphones start flexing Verizons network.
A T & T pays the bills in my house, so I'm kinda partial.;)

I swear I was thinking the same Tony.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

It makes me sad to think of how bad Verizon will screw up iphone.
The iphone OS doesn't lend itself to nickel and diming a person for everything, and that's their business model.
My other comment is "I'll believe it when I see it."

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Scott and Tony, in the end, doesn't really matter as iPhone sucks.

(posted on the road from my iPad - will switch to iPhone for the next post with the lousy AT&T service showing full bars)

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

:tpd:

Still not an official announcement. WSJ has reported about 10 times that the iPhone is coming to Verizon. Eventually they will be right.

Like I said before, I'll believe it when Verizon AND Apple have both officially announced it and even then I'll really only believe it when they go on sale (see white iPhone 4g).

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

All I know is my Verizon contract is up Jan 17th and the iPhone will get a hard look, if I have the option(I have been thinking about getting a smartphone).

I will not leave Verizon, regardless of the phone.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Still waiting for the official release... :tu

The [iDrone] doth protest too much, methinks. ;)

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Believe me, not as hard to do as you think. I too was a loyal Verizon customer until I got my iPhone.
I too was afraid to leave Verizon.
Turns out I went from the 3 to the 4 and am still alive and well, as confirmed by recent physical, to include a rectal prostate check.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I just got verizon fasinate smartphone. Its just about the same thing as the iphone. I think the phone and verizon are great

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

My years of experience with AT&T left me with a firm commitment to NEVER return, save for if they were my only choice. Fortunately they are not and I don't expect that they ever will be.

I know there are people very happy with AT&T, I am pleased they are getting what they need. But for me, it was not a happy marriage and I got out.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I am actually in both worlds.
Wife has Verizon from my old account and just renewed.
I am on AT&T.
Wish I could say there was a difference other than mine usually has better service than hers, specially when we are in the Keys.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I think that is very relevant when talking about carriers.... You are often talking apples and oranges related to what area of the country you are in.:tu

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Always trying to stir the pot. Carlos has proven once again that he is the Master Baiter.


;) :r

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Good news in these parts as Verizon's signal is much better in my area. I have friends and/or family on AT&T and Sprint, and each have a lot more problems getting a signal/dropped calls, etc.

Now, to decide if I want to upgrade...:hm

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Well put. I was on Verizon and switched to an iPhone on AT&T. The AT&T service in my area is HORRIBLE. My contract is up next month and I'm going back to Verizon whether it be to an iPhone or a Droid I don't really care. I think they're pretty comparable.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

New Droid X's for the entire family for Christmas - everyone is very happy! :tu

I have tried them all except T-Mobile and all cell service providers are nickel & dime crooks so I don't think it really matters that much which one you use.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Was that part of your carrier plan, or did you have to pay extra? What's the penalty for early termination?:=:

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I think VZN is going to be hard pressed to get people to port from ATT if their data package is going to cost people more. People love the service, but it comes at a price.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I have the iphone now and honestly do hope Verizon gets it, just makes for good pricing wars and better coverage. When guys jump ship from ATT (we all know they will) it will free up some of the coverage zones and hopefully make everything better.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

When I am ready renew and dump my Junkberry, I am still going to jump on the Droid Train. I use nothing but Macs at home but if the iPhone still doesn't have Flash capability when it's time to upgrade than I will still not have any interest in the iPhone.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Moi?

BTW,
Forgot to mention, I have to admit, I have many occasions where my AT&T service sucks!!!
I can't believe that they have yet to figure out how to give me service when my phone is dead.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Use your iPhone up here where I live for a few days. You won't think it's so great after that. ;)

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

You may very well be right.
Don't know where you live.
However, I travel extensively for business and have yet to find such a place.
Don't doubt it exists but I have yet to hit it in my countrywide ride.
I am sure I will eventually find it as I am on a mission.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I had At&t a while back, I would get voice messages three days after they were left and no one could tell me why. Around here, my Verizon has much better service than at&t did.
Now the question with your quote is, why do you need a phone in the Keys? Just sit back, relax and throw the phone away!! :D

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I live a few miles outside of Boston. But that doesn't matter. I've had calls dropped right in the middle of the city. I live in a heavily populated area and there are HUGE dead areas all over the place here with AT&T.

I have no doubt that the quality of service from AT&T varies from place to place and the same can be said about all the cell providers. Around here Verizon has MUCH better coverage. I'm sure you've travelled extensively and I'm very happy for you that you haven't had coverage issues while doing so, but reports of poor service aren't just made up.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

This sucks I just got a Droid X last week

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Yaaawwwwwnnnnn. I am just waiting out the next few months so I can get a Droid 2 when I am due for a renewal.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I personnally will wait. I am with Verizon (love the service and coverage) and I would not get the first gen of this Iphone. I saw what has progressed with the AT&T version and I think I will wait and let all the bugs be worked out first.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I'm always wondering if it isn't a Grass Is Always Greener argument.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Ok now it's official :D

http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/splash/iphone.jsp


No 4G LTE = iYawn. Wake me up in June when the iPhone 5g LTE is out.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

This is the killer....people currently with VZ jumping the gun by getting the iphone ASAP. I think I will wait until the summer for the supposed 5g iphone. Heck, I've been patiently waiting over 2 years for this day to come.....what's another few months :rolleyes:

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Will you please tell that to my wife? :lv I'm not relishing having to try to talk her into waiting a few more months.

The real deal breaker for me at least, is not so much the lack of 4g since VW will not have the entire country covered (at least to the extent that the 3g service does) until the end of 2012 or early 2013.

The issue is that the CDMA protocol doesn't allow for simultaneous data and voice. That WILL be rectified in late 2011. I would want a guarantee that this iphone phone will be compatible with that. And that ain't gonna happen.

They (apple) are not stupid, there is a reason their stock is hanging around $340 a share. They are masters at getting people to buy the same thing over and over again.

Whatever they unveil in July is going to be just different, sexy, cool enough to make the hunk of aluminum and circuit boards that you spent a week’s pay on and waited in line for 6 hours to buy seem like a piece of $hit.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

screw the Iphone, The droid bionic(dual core, LTE android) is going to be way better then the iphone. And it comes out when i re-up my contract, lucky me!

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

I'm due for an early upgrade in March. ;);)

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Id take a look at it. Im sold on keeping a droid phone. But i like being able to do what i want and having more free apps.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Boston is already on VZ's 4G network which is why I really want to wait for the 5g.

I will have to research this phone. I will wait until my birthday comes around before getting a new phone.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

finally all the att haters about dropped calls will be exposed as iphone users. im sorry but my gf continually has connection issues even while right next to me that i have never had with my phones. she still loves the iphone and i do too, except when she makes me call her back because she has bad connection on a call. :rolleyes:

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

No 4G. I will CONSIDER a switch once the new iPhone with 4G comes out.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

Is it really the phone? When I had ATT (before the iphone) I always had dropped calls. I've yet to have that issue with VZ **knock on wood**.

I looked at the DRIOD bionic and it's a beast with a 4.3" display (iphone is 3.5"). I think the iphone is almost too big as is.....plus I never had good luck with motorola.

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

apple had expressed a few months ago they weren't working to hard on putting 4g into the iphone currently. I cant remember where i heard this however.

ive had great luck with my Motorola. My original flip phone about 6ish years ago. Washed it and it still worked. then the original droid, which is the only phone i haven't managed to break. But just my experiance

Re: Verizon Finally Lands iPhone!
 

They mentioned that in the press conference today. Someone asked "Why no LTE?" and they said that there are design compromises that they weren't ready to address and that customers wanted it now.

Translation: Buy it now and then buy it again in July suckers! :)
