According to a new Bloomberg report, Apple may be unveiling the oft-rumored Verizon iPhone 4 on Valentine's Day, February 14th.
AT&T has been the exclusive carrier of the iPhone since its launch in 2007, but Consumer Reports recently ranked them the worst carrier in the nation, and iPhone owners have long complained of slow 3G speeds and dropped calls, especially in metropolitan areas.

**COUGH COUGH** Lurk Moar. There's other rumors of the iPhone having LTE chips with backwards compatibility with their old data network. You can find this easily by using google news and typing in "verizon iphone" in the search field.
Of course I realize all of these are just rumors. Even that a verizon iPhone is just a rumor. But if one thinks about it and applies common sense to the situation. Unless Apple pulls the old trick of holding back until NEXT years model they would be wise to include an LTE chipset.
As a matter of fact I believe I remember it being written somewhere that "Steve Jobs didn't want the Iphone released until LTE reached critical mass." That being said Verizon is debuting LTE at CES 2011.
But until it actually happens or Apple releases a signed statement this is all speculation.

Actually I just canceled my AT&T/Iphone account, it was not $325. It was $150 -$4 for every month completed of my contract.

iphone, shmi-phone. As someone who has used both, the Droid is better. At least, that's my opinion. Although it would be smart for Verizon to offer the iphone. It will aloow them to expand their already large customer base.

I will be interested to see when they release it? It has only been around 2 years of teasing. Not a fan-boy, but I am curious on pricing and features through the V.

Verizon prices will likely be the same as AT&T. Still expensive and overpriced. I'm starting to wonder if this will ever happen. Verzion and T-Mobile iPhone rumors have been going on over 2yrs now. Last article before this one said the Verizon iPhone would be announced the last week of December.
Even so I'm happy with my T-Mobile iPhone 4, just wish it had access to their 3G and HSPA+ data.

It's not just your opinion, your actually stating the facts which others refuse to realise. For once, the only thing the iPhone has that is "better" is its slightly higher resolution display..........that's it. Droid: removable battery, SD card slot, flash, gorilla glass, other androids also have higher resolution cameras, AMOLED displays, and HDMI ports. iPhone does not have one of these things, yet all Apple followers think their iPhone is better??? Give me a break. You are right in saying, the Droid already kicks the crap out of the iPhone, and just wait till the Motorola Olympus and a hefty of other phones coming out this/next month, I honestly don?t see how Apple still has a market share, but I guess fanboys will always be fanboys.
