iPhone Is Coming To Verizon

Well it’s about time. No really, I think that once we see the iPhone moving to Verizon, AT&T is going to lose people in droves. Seriously, outside of the roll over minutes, why would anyone bother with it any longer?

There is really no question that providing iPhone access to Verizon users is also going to put yet another damper on Android sales though. It’s really a matter of available applications, something that iPhone destroys Android on with regard to a decent selection.

What I have yet to see happen just yet is for Android to make the jump to AT&T mobile products. Perhaps I missed something along the way, but thus far I have yet to see any Android phones presented by AT&T. I suspect this will change once Verizon gets a hold of the iPhone for itself.

In the end, one thing is crystal clear: AT&T is in big trouble when Verizon offers the iPhone as well. Why? Because of the fact that Verizon does (literally) provide a much stronger network in less than metro areas that AT&T ever did. And that is just sad.

Based on the data-plan pricing we’re seeing from Verizon on their Droid phones, anybody who gets a Verizon iPhone had better be prepared to hand over the keys to their bank account.

True, AT&T has poor 3G coverage, but really, aren’t things like getting your calls and voicemails within a month a good thing? Many people have had basic ‘phone’ issues with Verizon to the point that they are moving away in droves. What good is your 3G when you can’t get a call or keep one?

There’s nothing in your article (or the one you linked to) that says with any authority that iPhone is coming to Verizon. My guess is that Verizon is hitching their wagon to Android and Blackberry.

What Do You Think?
