🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

Yep! I tried to compel you to leave your beloved Verizon if you really wanted an iphone, but you held firm. Man, I still can't understand that, but I have to hand it to you. Your faith was tested and you withstood it.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but its this fall not summer, so, you will have to suffer along with what you have on the beach drinking beers and margarita's and feeling totally inadequate. 🤣

They got it last Christmas. (Droid or Palm is better, fyi)

*AND* if these *RUMORS* are true... Verizon is getting *A* iPhone. This fall/winter. *NOT* Summer.

AT&T will get the newest iPhone in the Summer. Verizon will either get an iPhone or they'll get sloppy seconds.

I also think after like a 90 or so day exclusive cdma roll out, Sprint probably will get the iphone as well. And don't forget, cdma carriers in other countries like Mexico, Latin America and the Caribbean, I would say Canada but those cdma carriers went hsdpa+ for their 3g.

*Shrug* I bet the CDMA phone is unlocked/jailbroken within days/weeks.

jailbroken fine, but who cares if its unlocked, VZW and Sprint don't allow non native phones on their systems.

Not somethng I've tried/looked into before. Wouldn't surprise me tho.

What happens if I happen to bring in a foreign CDMA phone then? With a GSM, you pop in the SIM and your golden (Assuming the right bands are used on the phone)...

if I get a foreign CDMA phone (I know US is biggest market, but there ARE other CDMA markets), I can't use it on Sprint/Verizon?

For the most part, no, you can't. Yes there are some odd cases where both have allowed outside phones on their networks, but its a rare. And even so, for the most part, you will get the voice to work for calls.

Huh? CDMA does not work like GSM. If the MEID is not loaded in the carrier in question's database the phone cannot be activated. Period. *Shrug* I guess you thought it was as simple as flipping a SIM chip in.

I actually had that pointed out to me earlier by someone else 🙂

I sell contracts for Sprint, Verizon and AT&T and never once thoubht about it before someone mentioned that earlier today.

But yeah... That's basically what he said as well 🙂

Or R-UIM cards, but they will never go down that path. Too much loss of control.

Yeah, I think China Unicom was running a GSM AND CDMA network at one point and their phones had both. It would be cool if Sprint and Verizon used R-UIMs but seriously. Verizon is allowing GV and Android. Let's not push them too far...

They're not sloppy if you're bigger than the other guy. I'm just saying...

hahahaha-good on you Scott; I hope you get the very first one, you deserve it!! Don't listen to those other naysayers, they're just jealous.

Scott is definitely the man, but if the best day on Earth is getting a Verizon iphone you REALLY need to get out more.
