Live Coverage of Verizon's Media Event

Slightly different antenna break placement in the casing (one now above the silent switch) - consistent with the story a few days ago..?
 
I'm a little happy that the elitists out there in the US who think that having an "exclusive carrier" makes them better than well, anyone, goodbye to your little bubble and you can now drop your craptastic carrier. And no, I'm not a Verizon fan, I don't have either Verizon or ATT, but I loathe ATT.
 
New antenna design

Verizon iPhone 4 has the revised antenna design, wonder if it will migrate to be the standard iPhone design.

It seems odd that it's been 4 years since the iphone was announced and only now is there a second carrier in the US for the phone.

Unfortunately, that seems due to the monopoly practiced by US carriers. In Europe, I think it's all but illegal.

Not sure I understand your monopolistic comment. There are multiple mobile phone carriers in the US and we all can choose pretty much any of them.

Apple decided to enter an agreement to sell their phone exclusively to just one carrier. All the other carriers also sell phones too but just from different manufacturers. WHY IS THAT A MONOPOLY? You can choose your carrier and you can choose a phone.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a manufacturer of a product to sell their product through a distributor (carrier) of their choice.

So you are basically equating this to something like you love going to McDonald's but are pissed that they only sell Coke products and not also Pepsi products.

From the Verizon website:

iPhone will have the 3G Mobile Hotspot app pre-installed

How much will tethering cost???
 
Large helpings of crow are being served up to many forum members right about now, who denied it right up until yesterday.
 
why is there a new slit in the antenna above the mute switch ? is this to do with it being CDMA or ... will this be to do with the infamous attenuation ?
