I used Verizon from my first cell till I got my iPhone two years ago. For those who think Apple is controlling, they should use Verizon. Admittedly, I didn't have a 'smart phone' but the way Verizon controls their ring tones, games, et al makes Steve look like a libertarian. The stuff you can get on an iOS device is legion, and Apple only takes a 'taste'. Verizon wants it all. I don't think Apple's business model will fly at Verizon. Besides, why would Apple create a crippled product just to tap Verizon's customers when they (Apple) can't make iPhones fast enough to fill AT&Ts customers? Verizon is losing market share, largely due to the iPhone. Regardless of how fast they are replacing WinMo with Android, they just don't get Apple's business model, which has become a juggernaught. As for 4G being an attraction, I read in these very pages where due to extensive tuning, etc. AT&T's 3G is faster than TMobile's 4G. AT&T isn't perfect by any stretch, but I'll take my experience with them over my experience with the big V any day.
