The most likely new carrier is Verizon, which is the biggest carrier in the nation. To work on Verizon however, the new iPhone hardware would have to be CDMA compatible.
We will keep you updated.
alright! i finally can get rid of my At&t if this comes true!

I hope this is true so at&t wont be bragging about ONE phone on their network the whole time in the commercial wars against verzion which is the better company.
I really hope this is true. I'm using T-Mobile on my iPhone right now but their 3G network isn't compatible. If they become one of the new carriers of the phone then hopefully the compatibility issues will be resolved.

I hope a lot of people jump ship and go to another carrier. Should lighten the load on AT&T's network. Then I don't have to jump ship and go to another carrier. :0)
i just don't like how at&t drops my calls all the time, pisses me off. whatever happens to the "fewest drop call" crap they use to have?
I believe this. It would explain all the recent going for the throat advertising Verizon been doing against AT&T. They have really beat AT&T down hard on how their 3g network is a joke.
It would seem Verizons current advertising is meant to ramp up the idea that they are the better network for people with iPhones. Why would it be such a big deal if it weren't that Verizon was getting the iphone. I think this is all in preparation for the biggest mass exodus of a single phone carrier in modern history. If this is true about Wed. the last day....2010 will be a VERY bad year for AT&T.
So all of those Iphone users switch to Verizon, which has more coverage but a much less capable 3G network.
So complaints switch from "I can't get on the 3G network" to "This 3G network is SLOOOOOOOOOOO"...
:D

Quote:no actually test have been done and AT&T is faster than verizon. But the catch is that is when you can get an actual 3G signal and not the EDGE signal. I was just eating at chili's few minutes ago with full bars on edge signal and my wife was complaint about the long waiting for pictures to load on her iPhone. Now that does piss me off extremely and makes me want to take my iPhone to another carrier but you know what the reality is.........?Originally posted by ThePastor:I thought it was the other way around...

for me its not a hard choice. i just got my phone in october so im stuck with at&t for 2 years. i just hope that if there is a mass jump at&t will only get better. Also I can only assume verizon will be cheaper and if at&t wants to stay competative they will lower there prices too. Mostly there text and minute plans.
