information week article
Verizon iPhone Could Come This Year
An Apple iPhone that would run on Verizon Wireless's CDMA network could go into production by September.

Apple is reportedly planning to launch a new iPhone this summer, and is also working on a model of the smartphone for Verizon Wireless.
Apple has released a refresh of the iPhone in June or July every year since its release in 2007, and this year won't be any different, according to The Wall Street Journal. Quoting people briefed on the matter, it said Apple is also working on an iPhone that would support a CDMA cellular network, which is the same used by Verizon Wireless.
Bay Area Internet Solutions Raja Hammound, Group Product Manager at Adobe, at Enterprise 2.0 2009 giving a demo of Adobe LiveCycle ES2 The Large Hadron Collider will produce roughly 15 million gigabytes of data annually, to be accessed by a distributed computing and data storage infrastructure called the LHC Computing Grid.

The latter development would be significant in that it would break the exclusivity AT&T has had on the iPhone in the United States. Many iPhone customers have complained of poor service from AT&T, and the carrier has acknowledged that its data network has been unacceptably slow during peak hours in cities with a high concentration of iPhone users, such as San Francisco and New York.
AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel Monday declined comment on the report, but said AT&T continued to have "great relationship with Apple."
"We expect the iPhone to be a part of our future for a long time," Siegel told InformationWeek.
Reports of an iPhone for Verizon Wireless have surfaced before. Most recently, Apple's introduction in January of a tablet computer called the iPad led to speculation that device would be offered by Verizon Wireless. Apple, however, later said AT&T would be its carrier partner for the tablet, which is scheduled to be released April 3.
Industry observers have said that Apple is likely to offer the iPhone on U.S. cellular networks other than AT&T's GSM technology someday, and that AT&T is probably planning for such a scenario. Apple and AT&T have declined comment.
Meanwhile, the Journal reported that Taiwanese contract manufacturer Hon Hai Precision Industry is building the iPhone set for summer release. Hon Hai has manufactured the previous iPhones.
An iPhone that would run on Verizon Wireless' CDMA network is being built by Pegatron Technology, a contract manufacturing subsidiary of ASUSTek Computer, also based in Taiwan, the newspaper reported. Mass production could begin as early as September.

This is great news. I'm not leaving AT&T bc their rates are much better than Verizon but this will alleviate the overload of users and improve AT&T service for sure.

I have both an iphone and a bberry with Verizon...and my iphone doesn't get or make calls...EVER.
It's worth every single penny going with Verizon - NEVER a dropped call or missed call...always in range and have service. I doubt that the overload of users is what makes ATT so bad...it's the signal and technology, or lack thereof.

I've had my iPhone for appx 2 years now and have never had a problem. A few dropped calls here and there but nothing major. I'm content with the service.

Me too and my DH has one too.
The issues with ATT are most definitely caused by a huge amount of users with iphones. They use so much bandwith downloading stuff, its insande.

I've been dying for an IPhone but refuse to switch to AT&T. I have 2 good friends with Iphones and there are a lot of times the call drops in the middle of a convo. They both agree that they love the IPhone but AT&T services leaves something to be desired. I don't know if it's as bad on LI but I know in the city they have a lot of dead zones.
I really hope that this comes through with Verizon.

If this happens and I doubt it will this year many will go over to Verizon and then the AT&T network will be fine. You will see that AT&T's service will be better than Verizon.
The reason it hasn't come out yet is that they are trying to create a network that can handle it. AT&T hasn't gotten there yet. It will take a long time for them to make their network right for this device.
