At the news conference in New York, Verizon said it will start taking pre-orders on Feb. 3 for existing customers and February 10 for new customers. No precise launch date for the device was given. This is for a CDMA device only and not for the 4G.
They did not announce a 4G version, and we suppose Apple will have the upper hand in that. Big Apple news are always Steve Jobs' news.
This announcement is extremely important because unknown to most Google passed last week the iPhone at 26% of the market being Android based for 25% begin iPhone. Research In Motion still holding 33.5% of the market due to the business people reluctance to adopt the iPhone.
AT&T is in trouble. Their customers are quite unhappy with the quality of the service in many areas, 88% of AT&T users are locked in a two year contract, and AT&T is late on its 4G network.
AT&T Beware the Ides of March!
