The iphone is setup to use Voice and data on separate spectrum, that is why you can do multiple things while using it and talking on it. The type of CDMA Verizon uses isnt capable.

in europe the iphone works better on their 3G networks because they have perfected it and are using advanced 3G technology. 3G hasnt been advanced in the US yet, but every network wants to jump to 4G, Except T-mobile who started rolling out HSPA+ which at the moment is showing speeds comparable to the Sprint 4G.

I think it is a shame that the FCC doesn’t hold all the networks accountable for the bogus commercials on television about their true coverage and about the extra fees e.t.c.

So for now Verizon cannot get the iphone. At the end of 2011 when the LTE 4G is rolled out i think they definitely will and then maybe i will throw my BlackBerry away.

Some Android users will switch from their Droid to the new Verizon iPhone, but, you won’t see a mass exodus. The Incredible, Droid X, Droid 2, and whatever else Verizon puts out between now and the time Verizon offers an iPhone are better devices than the iPhone 4.

Nevertheless, if the iphone did miraculously appear to Verizon next year, I can certainly see the sales skyrocketing. People who use the android devices will definitely switch over. Blackberry users as dedicated as they are will try the iphone to see what the big commotion is about. People who do not use PDA or like touch screen too will get it. Right now I have a LG Dare and I am over the touch screen phase but I could see myself being highly tempted to buy an iphone.

Th only think I can really anticipate is Verizon may raise their data plan charges. Too many people will be using the apps and there are so many. I can see Verizon trying to bank on that.

Of course whatever Verizon charges will be worth it since they have the best network and one can practically use the phone for everything.
