That's the same boat I am in. I am with Verizon and my contract is up in September. I am definitely waiting until my contract is up because there is no sense adding the ETF to the price of the iPhone in order to have one. Plus this will give me time to hear first hand reviews and check one out in the AT&T stores. The trouble is determining whether I will be able to survive on a comparable AT&T plan, since most of my minutes right now are IN minutes...As excited as I am, I am STILL in knots over the fact that I'll have to switch from verizon to get this phone. I love verizon, their coverage is great, and all my friends and family (spare my girlfriend, who coincidentally is on cingular) are on verizon.
At first I thought i might wait it out - thinking that the second gen would be superior - and maybe available on verizon. But when I found out that cingular had exclusivity for 5 years..argh.
I'm sure a lot of people are having this crisis.
Anyway - sorry for raining on the iPhone is almost out parade...just had to get that off my chest.

You Verizon guys need to make sure you have coverage where you'll need it the most (home, work, Girlfriend's). I can't imagine anything worse than having crappy coverage where I need it. What good is the iPhone, if you can't make or receive calls?That's the same boat I am in. I am with Verizon and my contract is up in September.

i get the feeling you just want more iPhones to go around for the rest of us.You Verizon guys need to make sure you have coverage where you'll need it the most (home, work, Girlfriend's).

That's my only concern...I need to find a way to make sure AT&T coverage is good at my house...You Verizon guys need to make sure you have coverage where you'll need it the most (home, work, Girlfriend's).

Check with your friends and see if any of them use Cingular. If so invite them over for a beer/Coke (depending on your age) and have them bring their phone.That's my only concern...I need to find a way to make sure AT&T coverage is good at my house...
Or if you don't have any other choice, you can invest in a low cost Cingular Go Phone. Those sell for $29.99 and would be on the same network. OF course for that price you could buy the iPHone and use the 30 day guarantee.Check with your friends and see if any of them use Cingular.

I agree 100%. For awhile there it felt like June would never get here. It has been 143 days since the keynote. It feels great to know that the end is in sight.And back on topic....I'm glad to finally be in June also. Sooner or later we'll have to get a definitive date. Hopefully it'll be by the 11th. I don't mind the 29th but I would rather it be the 15th.![]()
Yes, we can finally say that the iPhone is being released this month!Woohoo for June!
June 11th or bustWhen Do You All Think We Will Have An Exact Date?!?
Countdown doesn't really start until we have a date.June 11th or bust
I think the countdown should be to June 11th. While that is probably not the release date, it is certainly when we would be getting more information from el jobso. i think...Countdown doesn't really start until we have a date.![]()
Definitely! I doubt we'll hear of any date before the 6/11 keynote and I'm pretty sure he'll announce the date then.I think the countdown should be to June 11th. While that is probably not the release date, it is certainly when we would be getting more information from el jobso. i think...![]()
