The only reason why I see that Verizon and AT&T won't carry it is because the full price doesn't justify them carrying even if LTE netwoek runs on them because in order to absorb the cost of the phone ($399 for 32GB version I believe), they would have to sell it subsidized for damn near free or at free because their would be no profit margin to take in, which is just being greedy imo. T-Mobile and Sprint while not as many subscribers as their bigger brothers, play it smart because they would rather take the full price of the phone upfront and get consumers in their store.
