Verizon and Apple finally make a deal on the iPhone
Read Time:1 Minute, 0 Second
The Verizon iPhone 4 was announced by Verizon and Apple this morning. It’s sitting pretty on the front page of Apple.com now as well.
Here’s the quick rundown on some basics as well as pricing and availability for the Verizon iPhone 4:
– It’s nearly identical to the existing iPhone 4 for AT&T – except of course for being a CDMA rather than GSM phone so it can run on Verizon’s network.
– The price will be $199 for the 16GB model and $299 for the 32GB
– It comes with a mobile hotspot app – that basically makes it a Wifi hotspot for up to 5 other devices.
– No word yet on data / voice pricing plans for it, or charges (if any) for the hotspot feature.
– On February 3, existing Verizon customers can begin placing pre-orders.
– On February 10 it goes on sale online and via Apple and Verizon stores.
We’ll have lots more coverage to follow, but that’s the basics from this morning’s event. So now those of you who’ve been waiting to make the switch from AT&T can start getting your money and your plan together.

Hooray!!! I’ve been waiting for this these last several years. I’ll be in line when they are actually put on sale. I refused to get one when AT&T was the only carrier. My wife has one and it works about half the time. Verizon, on the other hand, enjoys an excellent reputation.
Don’t cheer too much Red Sky. Iphones are part of the reason that AT&T have connectivity problems. I would just as soon they keep them. The IPhones eat up so much of the data space there isn’t room for anything else.
