iPhone Arrives On Verizon

America appears to have two dominant network, AT&T and Verizon. As the latter uses a CDMA network its users have been barred from the iPhone ever since the original launched.

No more. Today Apple and Verizon launched a CDMA radio wrapped up in a real iPhone.

I wonder how many Verizon customers will be rushing out to buy though, given that Apple's current upgrade cycle means we're just a few months away from the iPhone 5 (or possible 4S)?

The fact that the CDMA iPhone can't do anything else whilst on a call is probably another good reason for not jumping ship yet.

That iPhone 4 is going to look awfully compromised when its replacement arrives and you're locked into a two year contract...
