Verizon iPhone Help?
So, since it's all over the internet (not just in tech sources) that Verizon will be announcing the iPhone sometime this month, I have a question. Obviously since it's Verizon making the announcement, it wont be a new iPhone, but rather a CDMA version of the iPhone 4. I'm an existing Verizon customer, and my contract runs out in February. So my question is: Should I get the CDMA iPhone 4 in February, or will there be a CDMA iPhone 5 in June?

Should be interesting to see the Verizon Help section on MMI.

It would suck to be stuck with a CDMA phone when Verizon switches to GSM/LTE

I'm curious to see if they slap their silly GUI on it in some way.

I bet they don't. Maybe a Verizon boot screen, but after the blunder of rejecting the iPhone as the original carrier I bet they leave well enough alone.

Wouldn't they have to do a change from the A4 for it to be defeated?

Yep! And the "I bought an iPhone on Craigslist to use on Verizon, but it's locked to AT&T" threads.
