Verizon gets the iPhone 4 and iPhone 3G on February 10th, if you don't already know.

Seriously. The problem is, neither network has unlimited data plans anymore, so there's no real benefit to switching aside from cell service.

@THD- Wait, what? I have a Verizon Samsung Reality and the unlimited data plan is $20. Is it not possible to get that same plan for the iPhone? :?

@FarmMan- 'Round here, AT&T has the better signal.

@Elliot- Sprint makes amazing phones, but I'm not quite so sure about their service (because I don't pay that much attention to my friends' phones' signals).

You mean "does the iPhone only operate with AT&T or Verizon"?

Alex, I still don't understan your question. :|
Or did Diss answer it?

@FarmMan- Boost and Vonage provide their own services, Dissension just hit the major ones.
Verizon (who bought the company Alltel) and AT&T and Sprint (which of these two bought out Nextell?) are the three major cell phone carriers in America. It's very rare that someone doesn't have Verizon, AT&T, or Sprint; but it DOES happen.

Sprint bought Nextel a few years back. Boost Mobile is also gaining popularity lately.

My contract with AT&T doesn't expire until September anyway, so I don't have to think about this for quite a while. And when the contract DOES run out, I probably will switch to Verizon.

There are a lot of cell phone companies that are offering unlimited everything for $50, actually. I know Verizon offers it, and I think Tracphones and AT&T offer the same deal.

This has probably been pointed out already, but AT&T is GSM and Verizon is CDMA. You'd have to get a new iPhone for it to work.

Or you could just switch to Android, which is better than the iPhone will ever be.

Oh my god are you serious.
I am getting one yes.
there is no such thing as luck. if there was, there would surely be at least one person with all of it, and nothing bad would happen to them ever. but as far as I can tell, bad things happen to everyone.

T_T My Verizon may not have the best signal, but at least I can sign up for a flat rate that's fairly cheap.

I think I'd have an extremely hard adjustment period if I went back to my old flip phone with no/slow text or mobile web. :P
