The rumors of the Apple iPhone going to Verizon never seems to go away, as we enter 2010 these constant discussions online will only intensify as AT&T are due to lose their exclusivity. Verizon has been working hard on improving its network to handle the demands of the extra load that the iPhone will bring.
AT&T recently said that the iPhone is not going anywhere and that they will be able to fully support a 4G version. Unlike Verizon, as they will not be 4G ready for another 1-2 year. Both Apple and Verizon have held talks in the past, but neither could agree on the terms.
We know that Verizon is the preferred network carrier in the U.S., but they would rather push their own V Cast app store rather than Apple?s. All the time that Verizon makes demands like that they have no hope of getting the iPhone. This is a hard choice to make, the customers will want the better Verizon network but would much rather stick with Apple?s App Store.
Information Week has a great theory; they believe that T-Mobile stands more of a chance getting the iPhone before Verizon. The reason is because they will be more willing to meet with Apple?s demands, however this is just speculation and AT&T could keep hold of the exclusivity agreement for another year.
If you had the choice, which network would you like to see the iPhone on?
