Ever since the iPhone was first launched in 2007, we have heard several rumors about Apple working with Verizon to bring iPhone to their network. It appears that some of these speculations may have had a grain of truth to them. A recent article on Wired has looked into the...

    lol... wow iphonehacks is pathetic! Ha you just literally repost what gizmodo/engadget/wired already reported. Ha get some of your own news!

    Btw... either way verizon is not getting the iPhone. No way apple is going to make a phone just for one company in the U.S. only. The iPhone is a global product!

    @Michael
    Hey douchebug, people like you make me sick. Get your head out ya ass and stop typing crap. First of if you were intelligent enough "which i know you are not from your post" you will learn that same news are carried out on every network and every news website when reported, so who cares if someone else already reported it. We all get our news from different sources and i for one prefer this blog than most because of the readers input.

    Secondly ,the key word here is "Exclusivity" which i can tell you don't know the meaning.

    Word to the wise is in enough

    I believe that AT&T will be great once everyone jumps ship and causes the same issues on the Verizon network.

    Nonoie is right, you dont buy an HD radio receiver just to listen to analog radio do you. Why waste your time.

    Apple should be more like Michael Parr's mom. Just unlock the damn thing and sell it to who ever wants it.

    actually i have tried both at&t and verizon and i think that verizon is way better. the number 1 reason people stay with at&t is because of the iphone. at&t has a patchy network with very bad customer support while verizon has a very good service and the customer service is the best!

    if they did that, at&t and apple would lose their partner ship. which apple doesn't want to happen until they find another carrier.

    Quit your crying everyone is entitled to their opinion. You prefer this site, that's fine I prefer sites that are a few days ahead.

    Not this though, Verizon will NOT get the iPhone until they have fully released LTE. The whole world uses GSM and that is why Apple went with AT&T in the first place. If Apple does open it up tonither carriers it will be for GSM networks like T-Mobilr. But as long as VZW is CDMA they will not have an iPhone! Will NOT!

    Maybe t-mobile one day. However T-Mobile does use different 3G frequencies that's why 3G does not work for the iPhone when you unlock it for T-Mobile. But we shall see.

    Exactly. Woth less iphone users, AT&T will get a less strained network and Verizon will probably get the same problems

    I have a friend with verizon crappy customer service. AT&T always takes care of me. No questions asked.

    If I am correct I think T-Mobile was listed in the Top 10 list of companies that might bite the dust next year, that Wall Street Journal released a few weeks ago. That is in other words it will probably be absorbed by another phone provider conglomerate i.e. ATT, Verizon, Sprint. Like you said that we'll just have to wait and see.

    Bloody Limeys; Live in a country which is smaller than each of the largest 11 OF OUR 50 STATES and come on here talking smack about reception and coverage and unlocked iPhones. It would be nice to have multiple GSM carriers covering such a small country. I would imagine our carriers could get it right. It's nice that you can get unlocked iPhones though, since it makes traveling with the iPhone easier. Hell, your football boys couldn't even beat the U.S. at a game you invented! Ship me a case of John Smith's Extra Smooth and all is forgiven! Can't get it here! ;-)
