So Verizon and Apple finally got together and announced that the iPhone would be available on the Verizon network in late February.
So obviously this doesn't change much for us over here does it? Why do we care that the iPhone will be available on other carriers in the USA. Well I have to wonder about the timing of this announcement, we were all expecting a new iPhone sometime during the summer weren't we?
If you live in the USA and you hear this announcement would you rush out and get the iPhone4 on Verizon knowing that there is a pretty good chance that a new version will be coming in just a few months?
So it's got me wondering, why wouldn't apple have coupled this announcement with the new iPhone announcement later in the year?
Would that have made AT&T mad with rage? Probably, but with Verizon now on board would apple really care that much. I still can't help but wonder if this will change the release schedule of the iPhone, as all the new customer that will supposedly flock to Verizon, won't they be totally deflated when the new iPhone comes along in summer.
I guess the answers will come along soon enough, and this year maybe we will see the most radical revisions of both the iPad and iPhone.
Best wished go out to steve jobs, as he announces another break due to health reasons.
