This summer? Pretty much zero.
 
No.
I like the way AT&T gives Apple complete freedom.

I'm not sure Verizon would be this willing. It honestly doesn't matter to me, just give me a new iPhone. Thanks! :rolleyes:

You could have just read the poll results.
 
the question should be whether it's going to effect you any if the iPhone does happen to jump ship and join a different network. Me personally I plan on staying with AT&T because I have no issues with 3G network where I live. Now if Verizon or T-Mobile offer a plan that is cheaper then what I am currently paying then yea I would go.
 
Pros, IF iPhone goes to Verizon

Okay, well I have one.

If the iPhone goes to Verizon, there will be competition with AT&T.
Which means possibly lower rates.

If this happens, I really don't care if Verizon gets the iPhone as long as it saves me additional $$.

Could you not have added this to one of the many Verizon threads??
 
A Mod should just merge this into one of the many other threads. It's not a new statement in any way; I've even said this in the past.
 
Damn you guys need to stop flaming! People aren't on the boards every day like yourselves. If you see a thread that's been posted before, IGNORE IT!!

I am one of the hundreds of sheriffs on this forum, and I refuse to ignore it!

Pros: No more "When is the iPhone Going to Verizon" threads, including this one.

I was thinking exactly that: as someone who does not live in the US, the pro's for me are:
1. No more "When is the iPhone Going to Verizon" threads.
2. No more "When is the iPhone Going to Verizon" threads.
(such a benefit I had to list it twice)
3. ???
4. Profit
:p

Although I'm sure that if a VZW iPhone is ever launced it will simply be "When is the Apple going to let me change my message bubble colour" and "Verizon vs AT&T" threads that fill the forum instead.

People have a hard time ignoring it. I'm guessing they have a hard time ignoring their wives when they act up too... At one point or another, just get over it, and let it go...

Gettin back to the thread, my #1 pro would be the service.

I went from Verizon to AT&T then switched back to Verizon because of the lack of service(dropped calls) I got with AT&T. I was traveling a ton, and I lost many calls with it. The iPhone kind of turned to junk for me - that is how I looked at it after two conference calls gone bad in one day. I switched carrier's that week, and so has my employer within that same month. We all went back to Verizon. We initially switched cause of price from AT&T. But, as a company, we had issues with service. I would definitely consider AT&T spotty throughout some states - definitely haphazard when Verizon was not. It came down to reliability. I do, of course miss the features of the iPhone, but service is ultimately why I (and you) even pay money for a phone. If a Verizon iPhone comes out, I will be most likely going back to it. The simultaneous data & voice capability of GSM(AT&T) is something I won't miss as much people act like they care about. That really doesn't happen to me as much as these stupid AT&T commercials state. And, it ultimately can play a part in dropped calls from AT&T network.

Verizon has the better network all around from state to state, but the one thing AT&T does have is 3G download speed. They are all around faster, and with the safari mobile browser, it truly is the best & fastest way to surf the net on a phone!!!
