Doesn't matter to me. I love AT&T. I've never had an issue with the network or service. I would never go back to a CDMA phone ever.
People who think AT&T is good fall into one of two categories:
1) People who have no basis of comparison with other carriers.
2) Fanboys who defend any decision Apple makes, regardless of how bad it is.
I think the iPhone is the best cell phone ever created, but I resent Apple for strengthening and generating massive revenue for the #1 most corrupt and greedy carrier, AT&T.
Once the exclusivity runs out I would really love to see which provider is the best for the iPhone and how they compare in certain situations.
Same here. The back story on this is as the first iPhone was being developed, many carriers were interested in Apple's new venture. Verizon was supposedly the carrier that was to get the iPhone first. Month before the launch of the first iPhone, Verizon came in with a bunch of requirements that Apple didn't want that would cut the iPhone down to size in performance.
Steve doesn't play that game. Two weeks before the launch of the iPhone he flew into New York to show the iPhone to AT&T's CEO. AT&T was desperate to grow their cell phone business and this was it. What Verizon refused to do with their network to enhance iPhone performance, AT&T did. Steve never forgot that. However, all good things much come to an end.
Thus, the question is not how much better the iPhone performance will be but how much did Verizon flex "the most reliable network" to work with the iPhone?
so because AT&T wants to expand to more handsets Bloomberg reports that it must mean that the iPhone exclusivity is ending, way to overanalyze a continuously expanding business...
Good grief. Something tells me there will still be people on this forum who believe the iPhone is never coming to Verizon after it has not only been announced but other people on this forum have been to the VZ Wireless store and actually come back with a VZ iPhone.

I walked into the AT&T Store in Long Beach and asked if I could have a AT&T SIM card. They would not give me one, even though on line people say just go in and ask for one.
Hypothetical---I have an iPod with a bunch of apps, some quite costly. If a Verizon iPhone comes out, do you guys think my apps would work on the VZW iPhone??
It would be nice if other carriers get the iphone in 2012. 2011? No chance.
