Can Ya Hear Me Now.....iPhone

Well it looks like the rumors are now finally becoming more of a fact when it comes to the Apple iPhone coming to the Verizon network. On Friday it came out as a short trickle. Then the Wall Street Journal made it more official. By going into detail that Verizon was having a press conference with Steve Jobs on stage to so they can announce the new Verizon CDMA iPhone.


Today the WSJ (Wall Street Journal) was reporting that the Verizon iPhone will be available in stores by the end of the month.

The transition from the AT&T monopoly should be an interesting venture. One of the biggest problems before has been that time and time again customers would be complaining about network performance and pointing the finger with AT&T. As people do leave AT&T, it will be interesting to see if the network performance improves or degrades..

Part of me does wonder what Verizon will do with people who are already on their network when it comes to upgrading early. Will they make a rule to the exception and allow people to get their iPhone sooner or make them wait till their contract is up ?

I do think that Verizon will being Millions of users to the iPhone. But, the true test will be once the people have it and start taxing the network. Will it be the same problem AT&T encountered ? or will it be when someone says "Can ya hear me now" you will hear back Yep cause im on the Verizon network lol...

The other thing i wonder is what will happen with the typical iPhone upgrade coming to Apple will Verizon be part of this upgrade or will it have to wait since the CDMA phones are the new kids on the block. For months now rumors have been popping up of a CDMA/GSM phone.

If Apple came out with this option it could be an amazing phone to have, esp. for the world traveler where many of the places outside of the US use the GSM network.
