Default Death Note to AT&T?

WASHINGTON—The introduction of a version of the Apple iPhone for the Verizon Wireless network is not only possible, it is "inevitable," according to a Verizon regional president.
The latest rumor is that Verizon will start selling Apple's iPhone in January of 2011. Not that I'd even consider getting one, but thought I'd pass it on.

at this point, they've invested so much in the message that "Droid is better" and such why would they shoot themselves in the foot like that?

This morning the wife saw this on the news and announced she's gonna milk her old Razor until January.

I didn't bother remind her that she said something similar last year after she heard on the news that Verizon was planning to realease the iPhone this summer.
