Assuming iphone is coming to verizon, could there be a price war on the iphone itself? The price of used iphones should drop when at+t iphone users jump ship. It will be interesting to see how at+t react next tuesday.

It's already pretty cheap. The 3GS dropped to like $50.

I think the battle will be with service. If AT&T doesn't get aggressive with their data packages, they'll likely lose. I hate Verizon, but I hate limited data plans even more.
 
As well as it should since it lacks front facing camera.

It would be nice if at+t gets a data only plan for cell phones. Its ridiculous that they force you to get a phone plan...

When the iPhone 4 came out in Canada, Rogers discounted it to $159 instead of $199. Eventually so did the other carriers. But I wouldn't call that much of a "price war". Still, you might see a bit of savings on the device itself.
