I have been waiting 2+ years for this day to come and now that it is here I am wondering if I will be able to take a back seat to this Thursday' preorder. A 4g phone is something I feel I should wait out for, but if I do decide to wait until the summer only to find out Apple will not release the iphone5 on their network at that time I will be royally pissed. The only thing that makes me think they will be getting the latest phone this summer is Verizon's unlimited data package for all those willing to get the iphone4 in 2 weeks. Thoughts?
My understanding is that the innards of an iPhone Verizon phone is completely different than that of the AT&T counterpart, since Verizon and AT&T use completely different technology to deliver their signal. So, I would suspect that until Apple gets their investment plus some from making an iPhone 4 for the Verizon network, you will not see a Verizon iPhone 5 when AT&T gets theirs. Apple still has some kind of closet relationship with AT&T and I'm sure AT&T will get the cool stuff first.
