I'm a Verizon Wireless user and I have always wanted an iPhone. There has been a lot of speculation about the VZW iPhone (or even a CDMA version of the iPhone) over the last few years. Now for the latest...
The Wall Street Journal (subscription may be required) reports 'One person familiar with the situation' told WSJ that a CDMA version of the Apple iPhone is in production. The CDMA iPhone is being produced by Pegatron Technology Corp, a subsidiarity of ASUSTek Computer Inc.
This is great news, but more speculation ...Apple extended the United States exclusivity of the iPhone with AT&T through the end of 2010. This exclusivity might have been tied to the data plan available to the new Apple iPad.
This leaves VZW users, like me, still in the dark for a little while longer. The other speculation notes would be that this CDMA iPhone may also work for the Sprint network, and that would help them in their loosing cell phone battle.
