True or false: iphone coming to Verizon

I'm hearing this and wondering if anyone really KNOWS it to be true?

 

If so I'm delaying getting a new phone until it's available.

 

Any idea when this is going to happen?  (if it is.)

 

Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.

    Damn.

    I knew it sounded too good to be true.

    If AT&T would only provide some actual coverage in my area I'd switch in a minute but I do actually need my phone to function reliably as a phone first and foremost.

    Thanks for clearing it up for me.

    Bummer.

    Droid... here I come!

  • However, you can get an Iphone and use it on a different network. All you have to do is jail break it. That will void any type of warranty however. Which btw unless u have a hardware issues isn't any good. I have the apple 2yr extended warranty on mine and I just dropped it in the toilet. Guess what, $150 Iphone only 1yr old is toast and NOT covered under the warranty.

    However, this has actually worked to my advantage since dh can upgrade his. So, guess who's getting the 4 (not dh).

    Jail breaking iphones doesn't work on Verizon.  Something to do with the cards?

    I'm such a Mac-gal that I've already looked into this option.

  • damn.

    Trust me, I'd love to get away from AT&T (although service coverage is good here) but I love my Iphone (which is barely working now due to dropping it in the toilet).

  • I think jailbreaking also makes the iPhone far more vulnerable to viruses.

    In any event, I can guarantee that Verizon will be getting the iPhone soon because... I finally gave up hoping and ordered a Droid Incredible.  LOL!

    But seriously, after reading up on this, I do think it's going to be a while before it comes to Verizon.  There are too many hurdles at this point, including the AT&T contract.

  • I got a new phone not that long ago from Verizon, and my boyfriend asked if the iPhone was ever coming. The manager said he couldn't say anything for sure, but nobody is allowed to take any vacation time in August...
  • it's coming eventually... it's just a matter of when.
